Protandrenini
Protandrenini is a tribe of mining bees in the family Andrenidae. There are at least 12 genera and at least 380 described species in Protandrenini.Engel M, Gonzalez V (2011) ''Andinopanurgus'', a new Andean subgenus of ''Protandrena'' (Hymenoptera, Andrenidae). ZooKeys 126: 57-76. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.126.1676 Genera These 12 genera belong to the tribe Protandrenini (some authors treat subgenera within this classification as genera): * ''Anthemurgus'' Robertson, 1902 * ''Anthrenoides'' Ducke, 1907 * ''Chaeturginus'' Lucas de Oliveira & Moure, 1963 * ''Liphanthus'' Reed, 1894 * ''Neffapis'' Ruz, 1995 * ''Parapsaenythia'' Friese, 1908 * ''Protandrena'' Cockerell, 1896 * ''Psaenythia'' Gerstäcker, 1868 * ''Psaenythisca'' Ramos, 2014 * ''Pseudopanurgus'' Cockerell, 1897 * ''Rhophitulus'' Ducke, 1907 * ''Stenocolletes'' Schrottky, 1909 (''incertae sedis'') References Further reading * * External links

Mining Bee
The Andrenidae (commonly known as mining bees) are a large, nearly cosmopolitan distribution, cosmopolitan family of solitary, ground-nesting bees. Most of the family's diversity is located in temperate or arid areas (warm temperate xeric). It includes some enormous genera (e.g., ''Andrena'' with over 1300 species, and ''Perdita (bee), Perdita'' with over 700). One of the subfamilies, Oxaeinae, is so different in appearance that they were typically accorded family status, but careful phylogenetic analysis reveals them to be an offshoot within the Andrenidae, very close to the Andreninae.C. D. Michener (2007) ''The Bees of the World'', 2nd Edition, Johns Hopkins University Press. Description The Andrenidae are typically small to moderate-sized bees, which often have scopa (biology), scopae on the basal segments of the leg in addition to the arthropod leg, tibia, and are commonly oligolectic (especially within the subfamily Panurginae). They can be separated from other bee familie ...

Anthemurgus
''Protandrena (Anthemurgus) passiflorae'' (the passionflower bee) is a small (7.5-8.5 mm long) black bee that occurs from central Texas to North Carolina and north to Illinois. Females of this solitary bee use collected nectar and pollen to feed larvae located in nests constructed in the ground (through mass provisioning). This uncommon bee is unusual for two reasons: first, the only known pollen host is a single species—the yellow passionflower (''Passiflora lutea'') (such specialization is called oligolecty); second, because of its size and foraging habits, the passionflower bee is thought to contribute little or nothing toward the pollination of its host plant. Female bees remove pollen from ''P. lutea'' by suspending themselves under an anther and scraping the pollen out with open mandibles. This unique position of pollen collection almost never results in pollination as the female bee rarely touches the stigma. Historically the genus ''Anthemurgus'' contained only the ...
