The shiny-blue sculptured miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in North America.

It specializes in feeding on the highly poisonous Toxicoscordion venenosum, the meadow deathcamas, and close relatives. It is quite likely the only bee that can tolerate the deathcamas toxin, zygacine.
The short-tongued miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in North America. It is an oligolect of Rhus flowers.
The wrinkled miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. Another common name for this species is the rugose andrena. It is found in North America.
The dotted miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. Another common name for this species is Cresson's andrena. It is found in North America.
Andrena carlini, the Carlinville miner bee, is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in North America.
Andrena prunorum, otherwise known as the purple miner bee, is a species of solitary bees in the family Andrenidae. It is commonly found in the continental United States as well as much of North and Central America. Andrena prunorum is a spring-flying, ground-nesting bee that serves as a ubiquitous generalist in ecological settings. Both males and females live as prepupae in the winter in which they mate, and the females seek new sites for ground burrows. From there, they construct small cells surrounding a ball of pollen combined with nectar to nourish a laid egg before each cell is sealed, and the cycle begins anew. A. prunorum generally prefer the pollen derived from Rosaceae plants but will pollinate fruit trees if given the opportunity.
The red-faced miner bee is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in North America.
Andrena ziziae, the golden alexanders miner bee, is a species of miner bee in the family Andrenidae. It is found in North America.
