Protandrena
(
Pterosarus
)
aestivalis
(Provancher, 1882)
Counties: Aitkin, Anoka, Beltrami, Benton, Big Stone, Carlton, Carver, Clearwater, Hennepin, Isanti, Polk, Ramsey, Rock, Saint Louis, Sherburne,
Washington
, Winona.
Comments: There are two subspecies of
Pr. aestivalis
:
Pr.
a.
aestivalis
and
Pr. a. muesbecki
. The specimens in
Minnesota
contain forms that match both subspecies due to variation in the face markings. It is unclear whether the subspecies represent distinct taxa.
