18. Megachile (Aethomegachile) ramera Cockerell, 1918a , Singapore Leafcutter

The type from Singapore was collected by Baker ca. 1917–1918. This species was only recently rediscovered in Singapore in 2012 at Dairy Farm Nature Park ( Soh & Ngiam, 2013). It was also observed visiting Grammophylum speciosum at Zhenghua Park in 2014 ( Ascher et al., 2016b) and nesting at Thomson Nature Park in 2020 ( Soh et al., 2021b). We have identified a specimen from Pahang in the University of Malaya collection (access provided by Professor John-James Wilson), which is a new record for Malaysia.
