Osmia (Melanosmia) aff. trevoris Cockerell 1897 View in CoL View at ENA

County records: Alger, Allegan, Chippewa, Kalkaska, Keweenaw, Marquette, Missaukee, Montcalm, Montmorency, Oscoda, Schoolcraft.

Notes. Females of O. aff. trevoris can be recognized by the following combination of characters: clypeal margin with small triangular notch medially, clypeal setae brown, mandibular carinae parallel and scopa dark brown (M. Arduser, unpublished data). Males would run to couplet 27 in Mitchell (1962), being similar to both O. collinsiae Robertson and especially O. subarctica (see above). The species was compared to O. inurbana Cresson and O. trevoris by MGR, likely synonymous names based on male and female types, and widely collected in western North America. Material from Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio need further study to resolve the taxonomic status of these specimens.
