Fall mining bees, subgenus Callandrena

The top one is a Cloudy-winged Mining Bee (Andrena nubecula)

The other two are species that can't be easily distinguished in the field. They are either the Simple Mining Bee (Andrea Simplex) or the Peaceful Mining Bee (Andrena placata)

Bug of the Day

So I spent like an hour and a half sweep netting various parts of my yard for the City Nature Challenge last weekend, and the most interesting thing I found is probably this adorable mining bee (Andrena sp.) that somehow ended up perching on the outside of the net. I did not even notice it until I was on my way to putting the net back in the garage :-). Anyway, the back legs on this wee beastie are just 🔥🔥🔥

Andreana going into heat regularly after joining Rhodes island and only being able to keep it together by locking herself in her room. Eventually asking for suppressants or something to help with dealing with it. She doesn’t realize that every month Specter is shooting up from her sleep and needs to be restrained because she goes into a frenzy no one can identify. Skadi ends up leaving once a month and returning later after the first few times.

Eventually after the events of the Stulfira Navis they return back and go to indoctrinate Andreana into being a hunter and it goes fine for a day or two until it starts a little early. Shes not ready for what sex with the hunters is like, especially Laurentina who the captain had to grab by the throat and throw into her room with skadi to contain her

Blåhatjordbi (Andrena hattorfiana)

En hun, som er i gang med at samle pollen fra blåhat (Knautia arvensis), hvilket skal tjene som føde for biens larver i deres underjordiske gange.

Larverne spiser kun Knautia-pollen, mens den voksne bi dog også kan fouragere på andre arter i kartebolle-familien (Dipsacaceae), hvis omstændighederne tvinger den.

Large Scabious Mining Bee (Andrena hattorfiana)

A female collecting pollen from a Field Scabious (Knautia arvensis) to serve as food for her larvae in their burrow.

The larvae only eat the pollen from Knautia species while the imago may feed on other teasel (Dipsacaceae) species if necessary.

One of the most common #Andrena in the Mid-Atlantic.  A. carlini.  Black scopal hairs narrow it down, and the black on the sides of the thorax and cheek nail it.

Andrena sp.

Taxonomie:

Règne: Animalia

Embranchement: Arthropoda

Classe: Insecta

Ordre: Hymenoptera

Famille: Andrenidae

Genre: Andrena

Dans l'univers foisonnant des hyménoptères, le genre Andrena occupe une place de choix. Ces abeilles, communément désignées sous le nom d'abeilles solitaires Andrena, sont des pollinisateurs essentiels dans nos écosystèmes. Le spécimen capturé dans cette photographie appartient au genre Andrena, qui comprend des centaines d'espèces réparties à travers le monde.

L'Andrena se distingue par sa pilosité abondante et son corps trapu, adaptés pour la récolte du pollen. Son abdomen, souvent rayé, témoigne de la diversité de ce groupe. L'Andrena privilégie les fleurs sauvages et joue un rôle crucial dans la pollinisation, transportant le pollen accroché à ses poils scopaux.

Leur cycle de vie est fascinant : après l'accouplement au printemps, la femelle creuse un terrier dans le sol où elle aménage des cellules pour ses futurs descendants. Chaque cellule est approvisionnée d'une provision de pollen et de nectar, sur laquelle elle dépose un œuf avant de sceller l'entrée.
