Pseudapis sp. 2

Nomia oxybeloides WESTWOOD (!): WALKER 1871a: 43 (Tadjoura).

D i s t r i b u t i o n: Tadjoura.

Westwood never described Nomia oxybeloides, but the name is listed in SMITH (1855) and DE DALLA TORRE (1896: 168). Probably it is Pseudapis oxybeloides (SMITH, 1875) recorded from the Oriental region, but the record from Djibouti is not mentioned in BAKER (2002: 69). INNES BEY (1911: 104) listed " Osmia oxybeloides WALKER " from Egypt (Sinai), but not from Djibouti.
