Abstract:

Andrena aculeata is restricted to the Columbia Basin but the limited records suggest that it is fairly widespread within that region. Little is known of its biology, but it has a long flight period and has been found at a range of altitudes, which suggest it forages on a range of flower species. Research should focus on understanding the biology and establishing the distribution and population size.

Recommended citation at this webpage is the following (though this webpage is NOT the CD-ROM, and is potentially updated, with a current posting date of September 2008. Originally, the article appeared on a CD-ROM having the title and editors mentioned in this Xerces-recommended citation, which is on the website posting):

Only the editors' names are being included in this Biblio record, not the overall title of the CD-ROM, since we are referencing the website. Access date is especially important to use at this Xerces website as no one there currently (8/2015) redates after updates. Major revisions, however, result in a different document being posted.
