Anthidium loti: A characteristic summer species of the Greece, almost always found on the abundantly flowering Vitex agnus-castus. The males are swift flyers protecting their favorite bush of Vitex against intruders on warm summer days. Specimen collected by Jelle Devalez on Lesvos Island, Greece. Photography by Maggie Yuan.

What a lovely female Anthidium manicatum from Massachusetts. This species is a non-native species that has successfully invaded much of the Eastern parts of North America, in particular it is fond of ornamental gardens containing furry leaved plants which it uses to line its nest.
