SOME BEES FROM NEW BRUNSWICK, WITH DESCRIP- 

 TION OF A NEW SPECIES OF HERIADES. 



BY J. C. CRAWFORD, WASHINGTON, D.C. 



While collecting Ichneumonoidea in New Brunswick, Mr. A. 

 Gordon Leavitt also collected a number of other Hymenoptera, 

 and below is given a report on most of the Apoidea. Some of the 

 material, mostly Megachilina^, Sphecodes and male Halictus, has 

 not been identified, and is not included. A few of the determina- 

 tions were made by Mr. H. L. Viereck, and credit is given in the 

 proper places. 



Owing to our scanty knowledge of the bees of Canada in gener- 

 al, the exact dates, sexes and number of individuals determined 

 have been recorded.
