Hello:
The images below show what I think to be the cuckoo bee
Oreopasites scituli which I found in Twin Lakes CO at about 9200 ft
on Potentilla fruticosa - Shrubby Cinquefoil.
Please, examine the images and let me know whether you agree with my ID
or give me your opinion what it could be.
Please, note the truncated marginal cell and the dark red side maculae
on terga T1T2.
