Previously seen on this Flickr site was the male of Eucera dubitata, now here is the female. The genus is a spring one and as you can see from its longggg tongue it has the equipment to harvest nectar and pollen from long corolla-ed flowers.

A nicely arrayed longhorned bee from southern Georgia. It is rare that we get to see a bee so nicely laid out. Of the tens of thousands of these that we process each year most are hair-matted, covered in pollen or dirt, have crumpled wings, and are nowhere near this symmetrical. What a delight.Collected by Sabrie Breland in cool whispering Pines of the lowlands.

They don't call them long-horned bees for nothing' ... This is the male of an obscure Eucerine, captured in a lovely residual Long-leaf managed forest with much of its original flora...and much of its original bee fauna too... collected by Sabrie Breland from Ichuaway, Georgia near the Florida Border.
