Xylocopa virginica krombeini? - Centris nitida - Female
Boca Grande, Lee County, Florida, USA
July 18, 2009
Size: Bumblebee size
Ever since Dr. Ascher asked for this image to be pulled out of frass I have been on a quest for a better quality image of Xylocopa virginica krombeini. I don't know if this is it, I do note the lack of a bald spot on the back on this specimen.
