Size and shape of the stigma and curve of the basal vein

Author Gary Taylor ◦

From last week’s bush run… Not sure on this one, but the size and shape of the stigma and curve of the basal vein has me thinking Halictid, so I reckon it’s highly likely there’s a pretty good chance it’s possible it might be Lasioglossum (Parasphecodes), maybe… 😅
