Here you go.   

A member of a small group of bees that live on the U.S./Mexico border.  

They have been there for years,  moving back and forth across the border parasitizing Hersperapis and Conanthalictus bees in the area.  

Small things, usually with reddish backends.  Collected by Tim McMahon or Don Harvey on one of their expeditions to Arizona.
