Anthidium Bees

Anthidium are a genus of bees known for females using the soft parts of fuzzy or woolly-leafed plants to line their nests.
The thirty some species in North America can have either yellow or white patterns on the body.
A first glance might bring some confusion between them and the blue-eyed digger bees. The bracket look of the pattern represents a physical difference to look for Anthidium species.
