Discussion. B. griseocollis is most closely related to £. morrisoni. Its females are readily recognized by the yellow hair on the pleura and black hair on metasomal tergite 3 (cf. Figs. 133, 134). Males can be distinguished from morrisoni by the apices of the penis valves, which are short, abrupt, and curved mesad but not recurved (cf. Figs. 35b, 36b). This species is rare in California and occurs prin-cipally in the northern transmontane area. Most of the flight and flower records are based on data from specimens collected outside the state. The biology of this species is discussed by Plath (1927, 1934) and Medler and Carney (1963). The perching habit of males is mentioned by Plath (1934). In southern Michigan, RWT observed males perching and darting out at approaching insects or small objects tossed near them and returning to their original perch.

Head: Frontal outline (excluding mouthparts) trapezoidal except evenly rounded over temples, the vertex weakly arcuate to nearly straight across, the widest part about equal to the median height; vertical region nearly flat and weakly inclined toward occiput, mostly covered with small irregular punctures; ocular half of ocellocular area with few small and medium punctures, the ocellar half largely smooth; compound eyes somewhat more broadly rounded below than above, their inner margins nearly parallel except slightly converging above; ocelli rather large, situated in a weak arc distinctly below the supraorbital line, separated from one another by only about \ their diameters, the interocellar line distinctly greater than the ocellocular line; malar space rather short, only about f as long as the distance between (and including) mandi­ bular articulations, mostly weakly convex and with few microscopic punctures; labrum more than twice as wide as its greatest thickness, its ventral margin rather evenly arcuate, the labral shelf not very sharp or prominent and extending transversely not much beneath the tubercles which are subconical and mostly irregularly punctate, their inner summits separated by an intertubercular depression that is at least as wide as the length of the first flagellar segment; flagellum only slightly longer than scape, FI nearly equal to combined lengths of F2 and F3, the latter distinctly longer than quadrate F2; clypeus rather evenly but not strongly convex, little wider near its base than its median height, moderately well but not densely covered with mostly small punctures. Legs: Mesobasitarsite subrectangular, about 4 times longer than widest part, its outer surface nearly flat, the blunt distoanterior angle and somewhat sharper disto­ posterior angle about equally extended with a shallow emargination between; outer surface of hind tibia mostly minutely granulose with a weak longitudinal convexity anteriad of the middle, behind for the most part shallowly concave to nearly flat; metabasitarsite subrectangular with its outer surface shallowly concave longitudinally, its posterior margin evenly arcuate from base to distal end, the acute distoposterior angle extended somewhat beyond the blunter disto­ anterior angle with a shallow emargination between. Pubescence: Short, dense, and rather even except somewhat longer posteriorly on the scutellum and abdomen; hairs of the posterior fringe of mesobasitarsite mostly straight, longest basally and gradually becoming very short at the distal end; metabasitarsal posterior fringe comparatively shorter, most hairs being slightly arcuate, longest along the basal half and gradually becoming very short beyond. Color: Head (except for traces of intermixed drab yellow on most of face and vertex), the innermost thoracic venter, most of the distal half of abdominal T2 and all of T3-6, abdominal venter and legs black, remainder of thorax (except for few intermixed blackish hairs at the very center of disc), abdominal T1 and a wide more or less proximal patch on T2 tawny yellow (often this patch is very drab yellow or even light reddish brown; cf. under Comments), wings infumated with reddish brown to blackish, usually darker beyond the venation especially the front wings.

Worker. Length, 13.0 mm; width at wing bases, 6.5 mm; abdomen, 6.0 mm, width across T2, 6.5 mm; front wing length, 17.0 mm, width, 4.0 mm. Except for its smaller dimensions this caste is similar to the queen in all respects except (often) the wings are more evenly infu­ mated and slightly paler.

Male. Length, 14.0 mm; width at wing bases, 8.0 mm; abdomen, 7.0 mm., width across T2, 7.0 mm; front wing length, 14.0 mm, width, 5.0 mm. Head: Frontal outline (excluding mouthparts) roundly trapezoidal, distinctly wider through the widest part than the median height, the occiput transversely straight; vertical region nearly flat and for the most part covered with small irregular punctures; ocellocular area narrow, irregularly convex, and largely devoid of punctures; compound eyes bulging, almost evenly rounded below and above, their inner margins subparallel; ocelli large, situated in a weak arc far below the supraorbital line, close together, the ocellocular line being about twice as great as the interocellar line; malar space very short, only about i as long as the distance between (and including) manibular articu­ lations, transversely weakly convex and with few small irregular punctures; labrum nearly twice as wide as its greatest thickness, its ventral margin straight except arcuate at the corners, mostly irregularly punctate, the callosities only moderately prominent and not separated by any deep depression; flagellum nearly 3 times longer than scape, FI equal to F3, the latter about li times longer than rectangular F2. Legs: Mesobasitarsite elongate-rectangular, little more than 4 times longer than widest part, which is little more than i the length of longest basal hairs of the posterior fringe, the outer surface longitudinally only weakly concave, the distal end subtruncate with the distoanterior angle extended only slightly beyond the disto- posterior one; metabasitarsite rectangular, its average width much less than the length of longest hairs of the posterior fringe, its outer surface nearly flat, the distal end subtruncate. Pubescence: In density and length similar to that of female, somewhat finer throughout. Meso- basitarsal posterior fringe composed of a mixture of short and medium long hairs on the basal third, beyond becoming very short distally; metabasitarsal posterior fringe mostly com­ posed of rather long and shorter hairs on the approximate proximal two-thirds, beyond becoming shorter. Genitalia and seventh and eighth abdominal sterna (PI. XVI). Color: Head with the face and vertex predominantly tawny yellow with some black intermixed, the genae and temples black or largely so (sometimes with considerable yellow); thorax tawny yellow (usually) with some black on the center of disc; abdominal T1 tawny yellow, T2 (usually) with an arcuate basal patch even more tawny to reddish brown (cf. under Comments), the abdominal venter usually predominantly black or blackish but often with considerable tawny yellow or mostly so; legs largely black but femora usually with at least some tawny yellow especially on the ventral surfaces. Wings evenly infumated but somewhat more lightly so than the wings of the queen.

Comments. Structurally this species shows very little variation. However, chromatically it does vary considerably especially with respect to the shade and extent of yellow on the head, thorax, and abdomen; usually it is drab or tawny but often all the yellow is quite pale. The amount and color of the lighter pubescence on abdominal T2 is very variable ranging from a rather narrow arcuate basal patch to one that enlarges to virtually cover most of this tergum; its shade might be concolorous with the yellow on the thorax but usually it is more tawny with at least a reddish cast to reddish brown. Sometimes abdominal T3, which is normally black, will have traces of yellow at the extreme sides. These latter remarks encompass the form described as a species, mormonorum, by Franklin (1911: 161) which was correctly placed in the synonymy of griseocollis by Stephen (1957: 50). Often the light abdominal pubescence especially on the male is pallid yellow or whitish. The color of this species varies to the extent of being aberrant for I have before me a queen (Rock Co., Minn.) which on ab­ dominal T2 there is a median yellowish arcuate patch, the basal corners are mostly black and the remainder of this tergum as well as all of T3 (except for the inter­ mixture of some black at its basal corners) is rufous; also before me is a male (Minneapolis, Minn.) which has a few intermixed reddish yellow hairs along the distal margin of abdominal T2, a more conspicuous amount of the same color along the distal third of T3, and all except the bases of T4-5 is of this reddish yellow.
