Discussion: Andrena abjecta was reported to occur in Portugal by Baldock et al . (2018) on the basis of a single specimen. Examination of material from North Africa shows that the original Portuguese record is Andrena tenuistriata Pérez, 1895 as the fovea are too wide and the base of the propodeal triangle is too extensively wrinkled and lacks the necessary granular microsculpture. Andrena abjecta could occur in Portugal with records known from the neighbouring Huelva province in Spain ( Dardon et al . 2014 ) but for now its presence must remain unconfirmed. Material examined: Andrena abjecta : ALGERIA : Oran , (no date), 1♀ , OÖLM ( paratype ) ; MOROCCO : Tizin-Fedrhate , 60 km NE, Quarzazate , 1370 m , 6 o 40’N 31 o 06’W , 11.iv.1996 , 1♀ , leg. M.
