Widely distributed across much of the UK, Ectemnius lapidarius is found in a variety of sites, including urban gardens. Nests are typically excavated in decaying wood and the adults visit a number of flowers are for nectar. The one illustrated below, was found at the rotten base of a section of Elm trunk in our Market Warsop garden in June 2017. | ||
