except for white hairs on tip of abdomen it looks like the Mining Bee Andrena cineraria in my field guide. |

Hello, Louis! lweit wrote: Is that black fly a species of Andrena, with white hairy thorax perhaps Andrena cineraria L. Or a rather worn individual of A. vaga (female)? (But I'm no expert.)

Hello, To keep the record straight, it was identified as Andrena agilissima by Nico Vereecken on a French forum. Pierre Duhem |
