#Osmia

[cnestus]

it's ridiculous how hard mason bees are to identify, particularly in the western US where they're super diverse with at least 100 species most of which look extremely similar. i have this little sapphire narrowed down to most likely either Osmia cyanella or O. cobaltina, depending on how i interpret a tiny carina on the underside of the head that's mostly hidden by legs and mouthparts, though i also haven't confidently ruled out O. grindeliae, bella, or basilissa, the last two of which might be real species or just synonyms of cobaltina, depending on if i use the janky and unfinished discoverlife Osmia key or the 85 year old monograph by Sandhouse.

An Osmia...one of the group of western species that are bright shiny green instead of the more common dark metallic blue.  This one was found in a bee garden in San Francisco under study by Jaime Pawelek.

PenHero.com Feature Article: Osmia Progress 66G c. 1957

Sometimes a pen catches my eye because it’s really outside my wheelhouse. This is how I’ve managed to accumulate several interesting European and Japanese pens, primarily because of specific interesting features, including the filling system, design, the nib, and the materials used. As a result, a few Osmia pens have made their way into my collection, and I’ll admit there are a few Osmias I don’t yet have that I have my eye on. The Osmia Progress 66G was one of the last piston fill models to use both the Osmia and Progress names on the same pen as Faber-Castell phased out the Osmia brand in the early 1960s.

Read the story about these interesting pens here:

Osmia, particularly in the western US, are remarkably difficult to ID to species. i've tentatively IDed this one as Osmia bruneri but it could also be O. cobaltina or something else more obscure.

The luxuriant flowing hair of an #Osmia curnuta male from the Netherlands.  In club Osmia this species up there in the longest hair part of the Osmia spectrum.  Why?  Perhaps they are into good grooming practices.
