Identification of Hymenoptera (wasps, bees, ants)

Ne, a sharp marginal cell with a tip on the edge of the wing, 3 submarginal cells, and even strongly pubescent lower legs of the hind legs. This is definitely not megahilina.
Which sounds a lot like Andren to me...

How do you see all this? I'm not good at parsing such photos. For the life of me, I don't see three submarginal ones. Rather, two are seen, approximately the same size as those of megachilids.
And marginal at an angle and also quite suitable for megahilida.
Yes, not osmium, of course, but I've never seen an Andrena with such a dotted line and metallic sheen.
And you can't think of anything else

Is this also Macropis?

Submarginal-three, clearly visible. It is very similar to osmium, but the venation is not the same and the head is not the same. Andren also has a different head. It remains to accept that this is Anthophora furcata, which for some reason turned blue (color distortion?).
But it doesn't look like it - http://www.bwars.com/sites/www.bwars.com/f....jpg?1334750311

Да.

Good day everyone!
Please identify the bee:
On a country road, der. Pozdnyakova street, Irkutsk district, Irkutsk region 27.08.2015.

More like Seladonia.

. It remains to accept that this is Anthophora furcata, which for some reason turned blue (color distortion?).
But it doesn't look like it - http://www.bwars.com/sites/www.bwars.com/f....jpg?1334750311

Where is the blue one? If we are talking about this photo:

(and, having tracked the rather confusing course of the discussion, I go to it), then the only blue is interference on the wing, then this. But the bee that follows the link is really completely different. Although, as it turned out today, unlike wasps and ants, I have no sense of smell at all...

P.S. It is possible that there may be misunderstandings by individual participants (perhaps? even by me) discussion structures, i.e. confusion between photos and comments...

A little secret. When I come across such photos, I copy them to a graphic editor and do some magic with contrast and sharpness there. Sometimes it's not bad.
The top of the marginal cell in megachilines is more or less rounded and is located away from the wing edge. And here it is definitely sharp and will not stand up.
But I've seen the "metal" Andren, there are also such!

More like Seladonia.

No, not again. In this case, the basal vein is almost straight, and not strongly curved, as it should be in celadonia!
You give it to Andren!

No, the anthophores are thick, but this one is slender. And it's not blue, but metallic greenish.

Many thanks to the participants of the discussion!
AVA, Alexander, at your suggestion increased the contrast:

It's hard to argue here. The basal vein is clearly visible.
Not Halictus (Seladonia)

Submarginal-three, clearly visible.

I believe. I'm really stupid with pictures. Need a copy in hand

  
But I've seen the "metal" Andren, there are also such!

"Metal" Andren and I saw. And in the collection there is. But they are quite different. If it were not clear even for me a straight basal line, I would immediately say Seladonia.
Except for Andrena I can't think of anything

And the one you're thinking of isn't blue, but green.

I can't think of anything other than Andrena

And I see a crooked vein. I don't even know
The head is not "winded"at all.

So, you confused the photo and the comments after all, and not me. And then I already started to worry: I checked the thread of comments and quotes three times. IMHO, they are both gray (well, the first one still has an " ass " in red hairs, which I first took for a megahil brush), the rest are artifacts.

Maybe so, I won't check it out anymore. In general, I believe that the gray that looks blue (with a red "ass") is Anthophora furcata, and the gray that looks green (where the basal vein is "blurred" in the place where it should make a turn) is Seladonia sp. But there is no complete certainty, and the head has become somewhat difficult to think from the monotonous work on editing the CC RK.

Can I at least get to Rod?

Absolutely not a vein of the genus Halictus

But otherwise, yes. Galikt
Well we were puzzled by the Siberian devishka

To the genus easily - male Megachile.

Anything can happen - http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m131/Af...zpsxmcqn2eb.jpg
When I sorted all the bees by genus for the university collection, there were thousands of halicts, and I saw enough of those that even within one individual had a different curvature of this vein on the left and right wings! Plus, I found one typical Evylaeus, but with an abdominal brush like a megachilid. - http://molbiol.ru/forums/index.php?showtopic=469581
And here, "at least crack", but I see it like this (and you will mentally extend this vein from the part where it is almost straight, and see where it would flow if it were straight-clearly not where in the photo):

Still, not completely convinced. In the first photo, the wing is just at a large angle to the viewer, the bend is poorly visible. IMHO.
The Irkutsk photo has a different angle.
Although....Maybe you're right. I really don't want to call the bee andrena

Good afternoon! Anything to say about these webbed feet?" I understand that there is a wasp and a bee in the Kursk region.

Upper-wasp (Tiphia sp.)
The bottom one is a bee, but what is it? There are not enough signs.

Regarding the bee, can it be a female Panurgus?

Another batch of creepy rider photos from last year.
All MO, Railway, except the 7th to light

Photos, of course, to put it mildly, leave much to be desired ...
1-6, 8-10-Braconidae, to guess, you need to somehow navigate in the group
7-Ichneumonidae, even the subfamily is not really recognized
11-Diapriidae
12-sort of like Pteromalidae
13-if there are no red tergites, most likely Coelichneumon deliratorius L. (Ichneumonidae, Ichneumoninae)

Surroundings of Kirovo-Chepetsk, Kirov region. November 4.

Ichneumonidae, Ichneumonidae, Phaeogenini, further tribes on the photo here in any way.

And I see a crooked vein. I don't even know
The head is not "winded"at all.

I agree, I'm also for Seladonia

I think it's crooked. In addition, the wing is still at an angle.

Can you tell me why wasps from the genera Vespula and Dolichovespula were very rare this year? That is, the most common in all years, except this one. Maybe because May and June were cold and their larvae died of starvation?


There was a lot said about Polistes dominula and nimpha above, so I kind of caught the difference.
As I understand it, the following photos show two female founders of Polistes nimpha, taken in May. Did I guess correctly?

And also-please tell me about this rider.
