 antenn.T black; pubescence fulvous, bright fox-red on thorax above 

 and tubercles; some thin black hair on front and vertex; process of 

 labrum very broad and rounded; clypeus with sparse weak punct-

Habitat: Mountains near Claremont, California {Baker;

 Andrena? by its red hair and small size. In Viereck's tables of 

 .hidreiia of the N. W. States it runs near to A. chlorinella Vier., 

 from which it is quite distinct. According to Viereck (litt. 1907) 

 ./. xaiithostiqiua Y\qv. is identical with chlorinella.
