Notes

The higher-level classification of the Apoidea follows Pulawski (2013) Engel (2005) and M. Kuhlmann's online checklist of Western Palaearctic bees. The ‘traditional’ family Sphecidae is paraphyletic with respect to the bee families (here referred to as the Anthophila, an informal taxon, following Engel 2005) and in Britain and Ireland comprises the families Crabronidae and Sphecidae . Species-level classification of Crabronidae and Sphecidae follows Pulawski (2013). Figs 1, 2: habitus of selected British Apoidea .
