Summary edit

Description

Lithurgus tibialis: a fascinating species in that it is much smaller and looks quiet different from other Lithurgus species occurring in Europe and has the peculiar preference for flowers of Chrozophora, a quite unusual pollen source.., but from studies in Greece it is clear that the females almost solely visit this plant and collect its pollen. The males can also be found on flowering mint. Account and collection by Jelle Devalez who found this specimen on the island of Lesvos in Greece.

The grass so little has to do, A sphere of simple green, With only butterflies to brood, And bees to entertain,
