YES!

This is Cemolobus ipomoeae (Robertson)

A rarely found bee, especially in recent decades, so of considerable interest.

You may be able to observe more visiting Ipomoea.

Please look for the nest!

Thks

Thanks for the IDs. I don't live near the site where this was collected any more, so I won't be able to check again, but I'll definitely be watching for this one.
