That's not a halictid! Halictidae have 3 cubital cells, this specimen has only two. I vote for a megachilid, probably Osmia s.l. There are quite a lot of species in the Mediterranean which are usually difficult to identify.

Cheers,
Dieter

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
