Bee -
Coelioxys
Old Mill site in Westwood, elevation 5100', Lassen County, California, USA
September 14, 2010
Size: Body length 10.5mm
This bee was found dead, and firmly attached with it's jaws, to this rabbit brush flower. I am clueless as to why it came to be deceased as shown.
My thanks, as always, for any further ID help!
