Abstract

An account is given of the Apoidea collected by Boyer de Fonscolombe and preserved in the University Museum, Oxford. Lectotypes are designated for three species (Osmia tricornis Latreille, Lithurgus chrysurus Fonscolombe, and Macrocera grandis Fonscolombe). The identities of the type species of the eucerine genera Tetralonia and Tetraloniella and the correct application of the former name are discussed.
