Anthophora abrupta
Species of bee / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anthophora abrupta is a species of anthophorine bee in the family Apidae. It is found in North America.[1][2][3] Females only mate once, while males can mate multiple times. This bee nests gregariously - when one female starts building a nest, others are attracted by her movements and pheromones.[4]
