Andrena denticulata is a Palearctic species of mining bee. [1] [2]
The Andrenidae are a large, nearly cosmopolitan family of solitary, ground-nesting bees. Most of the family's diversity is located in temperate or arid areas. It includes some enormous genera. One of the subfamilies, Oxaeinae, is so different in appearance that they were typically accorded family status, but careful phylogenetic analysis reveals them to be an offshoot within the Andrenidae, very close to the Andreninae.
Banksia plumosa is a species of shrub that is endemic to Western Australia. It has hairy stems, broadly linear pinnatifid to pinnatipartite leaves with triangular lobes, creamy-yellow flowers in heads of up to eighty, and egg-shaped follicles.
Andrena, commonly called the mining bee, is the largest genus in the family Andrenidae, and is nearly worldwide in distribution, with the notable exceptions of Oceania and South America. With over 1,300 species, it is one of the largest of all bee genera. Species are often brown to black with whitish abdominal hair bands, though other colors are possible, most commonly reddish, but also including metallic blue or green.
The yellow-footed tortoise, also known as the Brazilian giant tortoise, commonly referred to as the Brazilian giant turtle, or more commonly, the big turtle, is a species of tortoise in the family Testudinidae and is closely related to the red-footed tortoise. It is found in the Amazon Basin of South America.
The bee subfamily Andreninae is a nearly cosmopolitan lineage, with most of its diversity in one genus, Andrena, which contains over 1500 species. The remaining four genera in the subfamily only contain a total of 9 species.
Primula denticulata, the drumstick primula, is a species of flowering plant in the family Primulaceae, native to moist alpine regions of China, Afghanistan, Bhutan, India, Kashmir, N Myanmar, Nepal, and Pakistan. It is an herbaceous perennial growing to 45 cm (18 in) tall and wide, with rosettes of oval leaves and sturdy stems bearing spherical umbels of purple flowers in late spring and early summer.
Hakea denticulata, commonly known as stinking Roger is a shrub tree endemic southern Western Australia. One of the many species of Australian plant described by the botanist Robert Brown. A compact shrub 1–2 m (3–7 ft) high and wide with red flowers in the spring with an unpleasant odour.
Pirimela is a genus of crab containing a single species, Pirimela denticulata.
Andrena scotica, the chocolate mining bee or hawthorn bee, is a species of mining bee from the family Andrenidae. It occurs in western Europe and is one of the most frequently encountered mining bees found in Great Britain, where it had been previously misidentified as Andrena carantonica.
Protea denticulata, commonly known as the tooth-leaf sugarbush, is a shrub of the family Proteaceae native to South Africa.
The bearded miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in Europe & Northern Asia and North America. Other common names include the long-lipped andrena and the sandpit mining bee.
The pale-faced miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. Another common name for this species is the pale-fovea andrena. It is found in Central America and North America.
The death camas miner bee, is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. Another common name for this species is death camas andrena. It is found in North America. It specialises in feeding on the highly poisonous Toxicoscordion venenosum and is possibly the only bee that can tolerate its toxins.
The Carlinville miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. Another common name for this species is Carlin's miner. It is found in North America.
