Perdita (Perditella) larreae Cockerell, 1986 View in CoL

[ Syntype: USNM; ♂ close to Mr. Shope’s house , San Marcial , Socorro Co., New Mexico, USA; June 28, 1895 ] This species is widely distributed in the North American deserts. As the specific epithet suggests, it is a pollen specialist on creosote bush ( Larrea L.) ( Fowler 2020). It was first reported by Ayala et al. (1996) in BCS. We reviewed two females collected in the Vizcaíno Desert in San Ignacio in September 1941 (CASC). See fig. 62.
