Abeilles halictes

Abeilles halictes

Lasioglossum spp.
Abeille
Entrée au niveau du genre couvrant les petites abeilles solitaires halictes, de petite à très petite taille, qui visitent les fleurs composées, les herbes aromatiques et de nombreuses vivaces indigènes. Des pollinisatrices sous-estimées — ce que la plupart des gens imaginent comme de « petites abeilles noires » sur les fleurs sont souvent des espèces de Lasioglossum.

American basswood
Tilia americana
Plausible
Small native sweat bees are part of the broad native-bee guild the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center notes basswood supports, though the source does not name genera.
Anise hyssop
Agastache foeniculum
Documentée
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center flags special value to native bees generally, which includes small sweat bees such as Lasioglossum that work the small two-lipped flowers.
Blue vervain
Verbena hastata
Documentée
Carries the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center "Special Value to Native Bees" designation, which covers small sweat bees among the native-bee guild it supports.
Boneset
Eupatorium perfoliatum
Documentée
Small sweat bees and other native bees forage the shallow flowers; the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center lists boneset as a plant of special value to native bees and supporting conservation biological control.
California fuchsia
Epilobium canum
Documentée
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center records "Special Value to Native Bees" for Epilobium canum; small sweat bees (Lasioglossum spp.) are among the generalist native bees that work the flowers.
Chives
Allium schoenoprasum
Documentée
Common thyme
Thymus vulgaris
Documentée
Garden sage
Salvia officinalis
Plausible
Oregano
Origanum vulgare
Documentée
Parsley
Petroselinum crispum
Documentée
Second-year umbels are heavily worked by small native bees + hoverflies.
Short-toothed mountain mint
Pycnanthemum muticum
Documentée
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center flags Special Value to Native Bees; the shallow, accessible flowers suit small native sweat bees among many other short-tongued visitors.
Venus flytrap
Dionaea muscipula
Plausible
Small sweat bees are among the flower visitors that pollinate the tall spring blooms held above the traps; the elevated flowers are thought to keep these pollinators out of reach of the plant's own snap-traps.
Plantes à pollen · 18
American plum
Prunus americana
Documentée
Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center lists special value to native bees; the abundant early flowers feed ground- and small-bodied native bees emerging in early spring.
Beach plum
Prunus maritima
Plausible
Small native sweat bees are typical early-spring visitors to mass-flowering Prunus; consistent with the documented Special Value to Native Bees, though not named individually by the source.
California poppy
Eschscholzia californica
Documentée
Lasioglossum sweat bees work the cup-shaped flowers heavily; the image used here documents Lasioglossum calceatum visiting a California poppy bloom at Munich Botanical Garden. The cup architecture suits short-tongued sweat bees particularly well.
Chicory
Cichorium intybus
Documentée
Small native sweat bees work the open composite flowers heavily for pollen during the morning bloom window.
Common yarrow
Achillea millefolium
Documentée
Small sweat bees in the Lasioglossum genus visit the tiny ray florets in dense numbers; yarrow flower-head architecture supports both large and small bee species concurrently.
Eastern prickly pear
Opuntia humifusa
Documentée
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center, citing the Xerces Society Pollinator Program, lists Opuntia humifusa as having special value to native bees; small sweat bees (Lasioglossum spp.) are among the native bees that forage the abundant pollen of the open yellow flowers.
English lavender
Lavandula angustifolia
Plausible
Fern-leaf yarrow
Achillea filipendulina
Documentée
Small sweat bees visit the tiny ray florets in numbers; the dense corymb supports both large and small bee species at once.
Foamflower
Tiarella cordifolia
Documentée
Garden strawberry
Fragaria × ananassa
Plausible
Small sweat bees commonly visit strawberry flowers for pollen. NC State Extension records a specialized native Andrena bee (A. melanochroa) on this plant; absent a matching catalog entry for that genus, small ground-nesting bees are represented here by Lasioglossum.
Golden alexanders
Zizia aurea
Documentée
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center records special value to native bees. The shallow open umbels are well matched to short-tongued spring bees such as small sweat bees (Lasioglossum), which work the accessible pollen and nectar early in the season.
Ground cherry
Physalis pruinosa
Plausible
NC State notes the Physalis genus supports specialized native bees; small sweat bees such as Lasioglossum are among the generalist visitors that forage pollen from the open yellow flowers. Mapped at plausible confidence — the toolbox states a genus-level bee association, not a species-specific record for Physalis pruinosa.
Moss rose
Portulaca grandiflora
Plausible
Small sweat bees such as Lasioglossum work the pollen-rich open flowers on sunny days, when the blooms are receptive.
Stiff goldenrod
Solidago rigida
Documentée
Sunchoke
Helianthus tuberosus
Plausible
The Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center flags Helianthus tuberosus as of Special Value to Native Bees; small native sweat bees (Lasioglossum spp.) are among the generalist native bees that forage such late-summer composite sunflowers, mapped here as the closest catalog representative of that documented native-bee value.
White wood aster
Eurybia divaricata
Documentée
Wild geranium
Geranium maculatum
Documentée
Wild lupine
Lupinus perennis
Documentée
Carries the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center "special value to native bees" flag; small native sweat bees (Lasioglossum and relatives) work the spring flowers for pollen.
