Hylaeus signatus (Panzer, 1798) | ||
Often referred to as the Large Yellow-face Bee, Hylaeus signatus is probably an under-recorded species across Nottinghamshire. It is particularly attracted to the flowers of Mignonette and can be expected wherever this grows. Noticeably larger than other Hylaeus species, it often favours brownfield sites. There are few Nottinghamshire records, but we have recorded it from Sherwood Forest CP and a brownfield site at New Ollerton. | ||
