7mm, Clitheroe UK, 4 September 2011 Does anyone know this curious bee? I was intrigued by the complicated proboscis. Stephen R attached the following image: [133.33Kb] Edited by Stephen R on 09-09-2011 12:12 |

Lasioglossum morio group I think. They are around 6mm and have a greenish metallic glow. Janet http://cubits.org... |

Thanks Janet! I can see from the antennae that this is a male. I measured the length from the photo at 7.3mm, which seems to be within the range for the group.
