Anthidium (Anthidium) paroselae Cockerell
Anthidium paroselae is a desert species. It ranges from Texas to Sonora, Mexico, and southern California (Grigarick and Stange, 1968), and we have found it at many of our study sites from Las Cruces, New Mexico, to Palm Springs, California. The species is polylectic and in southern California; females have been taken at flowers of Palafoxia and Prosopis, as well as Larrea (near Palm Springs, Timberlake). Two flight periods are evident, a vernal flight in April and May, and an autumnal flight in October. Newberry (1900) has reported some information on the nesting habits of this species.
