Sweat bee - Sphecodes - female

Sweat bee - Sphecodes - Female
Harvard, Worcester County, Massachusetts, USA
June 24, 2004
ID provided by Doug Yanega.

Sphecodes
My guess is that it is a female.

 
it does look like a female
based on body shape, coloration, antennal length, etc.

 
cuckoo bee
I had an ID telling me it was a male sphecodes, and then you think it's a female, so I'll play it safe, and not place a gender on it. Thanks Adalbert.
