Andrena (Chlorandrena) rhyssonota Pérez, 1895

Remarks. Andrena rhyssonota was described from Sicily, and so there is no need to confirm it for the Italian fauna. However, it is worthwhile to highlight that it persists on the island of Sicily, as Comba (2019) [species 44] noted that it had not been observed since 1913.
