Abstract

Two species of leaf-cutter bees were accidentally introduced into the United States and now occur in California: Megachile rotundata (Fabricius) and Megachile concinna Smith. This publication deals only with M. rotunda ta, which is now established through-out the Sacramento and San Joaquin Valleys and the northern mountain counties of California.
