Anthophora ambigua. Per. 



$ Biskra, stony hills north-west of the town, visiting 

 Acanthyllis tragacanthoides. " This species is common in 

 the desert, vigilant and very swift on the wing, hovering 

 and darting off at the least alarm like Macroglossa stella- 

 tarum or Plusia gamma ; in the intervals of business they 

 alight to bask on stones, sometimes hovering down, after 

 the manner of small Syrphidm approaching flowers, their 

 hum is nearly of the same pitch as that of an excited 

 hive-bee. I once found one asleep under a stone towards 

 evening." 27, i, 94. {A. E. E)
