| Summary: | A trap-nesting program in northern Spain undertaken in cooperation
with Dr. Enrique Asensio (Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones
Agrarias, Valladolid) over the past few years has resulted in
numerous nests of megachilids. One of these represents a new species
of Protosmia Ducke. It is described here in order to make the
name available for the description of its nesting biology, and is
named in honor of Dr. Asensio, in recognition of his considerable
help in this trap-nesting study. |
