Coelioxys (Cyrtocoelioxys) apicata F. Smith View in CoL

Coelioxys apicata F. Smith, 1854: 267 View in CoL . Holotype female in BMNH.

Two females are deposited in the USNM collection with the label data: “acerca via Borinquen, Puerto Rico, 17.viii.1944, plane 12405, no. 2185, lot. no. 44 23/36”. This Palearctic species ( Pasteels 1968) was likely introduced by a similar means as the host bees it may parasitize ( Megachile spp ). It remains to be verified whether it has become established in Puerto Rico .
