Distribution and remarks.
Previously known from Syria, Jordan, and Israel through North Africa to Algeria ( Gusenleitner and Schwarz 2002). There are only two Ulandrena in north-western Africa, and A. speciosa is instantly separable in the female sex from A. (Ulandrena) tadorna Warncke, 1974 as the former has a yellow clypeus and lower paraocular areas, whereas those of the latter are completely black.
