Status

These two species cannot be told apart even under a microscope. One of the crow bees of the North America. It occurs almost everywhere and remains common in urban and disturbed sites, where it is just fine with gathering pollen from alien weeds and flower beds. These bees occur throughout the year living in a semi-social state where daughters help mothers and more than one generation occurs within the year. Look in your garden and it will be there. Favors daisy-like composite flowers. (S. Droege, pers. comm.)

Description

Nests are categorized as ground burrows, and social behavior is categorized as primitively eusocial or semisocial (Selfridge et al., 2017).
