This little bee is very liable to be contbunded 

 with the preceding, but it may always be known by 

 the shape of its head, which, like that of most 

 other Bomhinatrices, represents an equilateral tri- 

 angle, with rounded angles. The last segment of 

 the abdomen, of the aculeate, is likewise shorter.
