Identification of Hymenoptera (wasps, bees, ants)

I meant - species of the genus Bembex. I believe we have several of them, but I do not know anyone other than Bembex rostratus, and I cannot say that this is it. And according to your link - one of the American species of this genus. That's probably why it doesn't look like the one in your photo.

I'm not an expert,so I'm sorry if anything is wrong.

Well, I'm also not an expert on oss, so as it became clear earlier, I pointed my finger at the sky incorrectly

In general, you would at least indicate the size of the animal ...
Pay attention to how the wasp drags the victim - with its hind legs; small things can also stick on the sting. Bembixes transport the victim in a different way.
This is Oxybelus sp. Presumably-Ox. argentatus. But the main specialist for them is AVA.

In fact almost to the point found http://www.atlashymenoptera.net/galerie/photo.aspx?id=3572# a very big similarity.

Andrey hello. Couldn't figure out if my emails were getting through to your email address or not?

Hello, Evgeny!
Yes. My email was a little off. And your messages weren't there.
Well, throw it off and we'll see...

As far as I know, we only have Bembex sp for flies. hunting.

Nope. Crabro, Ectemnius, Oxybelus, and some Crossocerus species hunt flies here....

I also immediately thought of Oxybelus, but I didn't see any representatives of this genus with a size of 14-16 mm

I apologize that I did not specify the size of this animal, but its size is slightly smaller than ktyr, i.e. somewhere 14-16mm.

It seems to me that this fly is not even a ktyr at all...

On the macroid, a specialist suggested that it might be a false copy of this. Therevidae.

I also immediately thought of Oxybelus, but I didn't see any representatives of this genus measuring 14-16 mm in our latitudes.

I gave the approximate size starting from the size of the ktyr or lzhektyr and from memory.And what was shot in M. O. is absolutely accurate.

something from the Pompilidae. As it seems to me, the genus Auplopus has many questions.
- 2nd sternite of the abdomen without cross-section. grooves (although it seems to me that this is a male) (photo 1a)
- Rear thighs in front of the top with 5 spines. (photo 2a)
- Hind legs except for spurs with separate spines of different lengths. (photo 3a)
- The nervellus is more or less curved, but does not form an acute angle with the mediocubital cell. (photo 4a )
- With the anal vein forming a rounded angle (quite difficult to say.) (photo 4a, 1aa)
- On the intermediate segment there is a prong on the side (as it seems to me) in the form of such ears . (photo 5a, 7a)
- On the claw there is a clear blunt prong (photo 6a)
- The platypus is evenly rounded.
It is quite similar to A. sanguinolentus, but it is confusing that the distance between the hind eyes is not more than 3 times the distance from the eye to the eye.

On the macroid, a specialist suggested that it might be a false copy of this. Therevidae.

That's right.

by the way Alex2611, the last yellow-red andrena at the beginning of the page is Andrena tridentata, I mastered it! ))

   Tell me what it is ea avery.M. About the neighborhood of Orekhovo-zuyevo,10.11.2009

Is this by any chance a burrowing wasp from the genus Mellinus?

Alex, what can you say about the thread at the top of the page, under the red one?
Do you have any other options for Pompidou?
What about burrowing wasps? I have a lot of them here too, though there are a lot of questions about them tozhe

In general, this animal was caught in Khakassia, on a bed of calendula, in early August.
As a variant of Mellita dividiata or it's something like Colletes

Not Mellita. Colletes
From the photo would undertake to determine this genus only from Flax.regions. Having a copy in my hands, I would risk identifying it from the European part of the former USSR. From your region, I can not identify representatives of this genus even by an instance.

I wrote about the bee.
I hardly missed it.
I don't know much about burrowing wasps, but most likely I can only get to the genus from the photo.
But you can try posting it - sometimes the forum has a specialist in sphecides. From the Crimea in my opinion. I can't remember the nickname. He sometimes wrote in this topic before.

I turned this bee once more by the Far East identifier. I think it was published on Colletes sidemii Radoszkowski, 1891, but I'm not sure.

Something from Ophion,but what?A rather large animal of about 30 mm.Orekhovo-zuyevsky district,14.08.2009 4.In the same place 01.07.2009.

No, this is not it, it is a representative of another subfamily of ichneumonids-Ctenopelmatinae, namely, Opheltes glaucopterus L.-parasitizes in the larvae of mace-moustached sawflies from the genus Cimbex the
second animal is from ichneumonin

Many human thanks.

Help plz identify this Ichneimon and megahilid.

   Help plz determine...... megahilid.

Subfamily Megachilinae, tribe Anthidiini
If you specify the approximate size and where it was photographed, then you can think more specifically

M. O. Orekhovo-zuyevsky district, size approximately 12-14mm.

I have a strong suspicion that this is Colletes pollaris female, for us it is just given. The description of tergites is very suitable, especially the pubescence of the first tergite, look at it at your leisure )))
Waiting for comments.

Maybe it's Anthidium florentinum.

Maybe it's Anthidium florentinum.

Maybe I'm being stupid, but I want to call this bee Anthidium manicatum (Linnaeus, 1758).

Do you mean Colletes polaris or Colletes collaris?

If we are talking about Colletes collaris, then I doubt it. In the specimens of this species known to me, the pubescence of the mid-spine is thicker, brighter, red-brown, with a quite distinct admixture of black hairs.
Yes, and the vertical part of the intermediate segment is almost bare, and your bee is pubescent.
But that's just my point of view. I don't pretend to be the truth at all.

Maybe I'm being stupid, but I want to call this bee Anthidium manicatum (Linnaeus, 1758).

Obvious resemblance, similar to the female http://www.discoverlife.org/mp/20o?search=...idium+manicatum

alex 2611. greetings. I wanted to show you a friend. Namayalis I with him, very long thought that this Paramegila she has no cheeks at all, in fact it turned out to be Anthophora, that's just what...Alternatively male A. borealis

Well...it is of course...basically why not....
But if we speak with a greater degree of confidence, then I would like to see both the sternites of the abdomen, and the middle legs, and the cheeks-mandibles....
By the way, Paramegilla is no longer a separate genus, but a subgenus in the genus Anthophora

Dear experts, I decided to open a new topic on sawflies, because in the topic definition of hymenoptera for this species there were no comments, although there are 2 photos from different regions of Russia.This one was taken on 30.06.2009 10: 11 Moscow region, Orekhovo-Zuyevsky district, on the bank of the Klyazma river, approximate size 18-20mm. I would be grateful for help in determining this beast.

aleks2611 as you do in recognizing thoracica-gallica species...I'm confused about them

aleks2611 as you do in recognizing thoracica-gallica species...I'm confused about them

Yes, they seem to differ normally. You probably only have one view.
Now I specifically took copies of both types - everything is just like in the determinant. In gallica, the first tergite and apical parts of 2-4 tergites are clearly weakly dotted (compared to thoracica)
, the brown pubescence of the mid-spine in gallica falls lower in front than in thoracica.
My gallica specimens (alas, only 3 pieces) also have darker wings and yellow spurs on the hind legs. In my thoracica specimens, the same spurs are exceptionally black. But this can hardly be considered a definitive sign.

in your opinion, what kind of species do we have?

Andrena thoracica occurs precisely. All over Siberia to the Far East.
But gallica doesn't seem to be.
Do you have many instances?
In thoracica, in contrast to gallica, the process of the upper lip is rather strongly triangular cut out.
And what color are the spurs of the hind legs?

Can you help me with the bee?" Moscow region, June, 8 mm.

Anyone from the Megachilidae?

For some reason, I don't want to call this bee megahilina at all...
Some kind of Eucera???? I don't understand....
Oh, more photos, from different angles...
