Male Megachilidae.
Great images of a male leafcutter bee. Not positive of genus, but leaning toward Megachile.

Thanks, Eric!
As usual, my keying error was early on - I think I mistook the jugal lobe for a different hind wing lobe (vanal?). I'll move these two sets of images to "Bees" for a while in the hopes that Dr. Ascher will see them when he gets back from his trip... Will eventually move to at least Megachilidae. Thanks again.
