Megachile melanophoea submelanophoea
This form is very similar to typical melanophoea, but the scopa is entirely deep black. It may also be separated from other related forms by the entirely black pubescent cheeks, legs and pleura, while the vertex, scutum, scutellum and terga 1 and 2 are entirely pale ochraceous pubescent, without black intermixture.

DISTRIBUTION—Formerly known only from California, specimens have now been identified from Michigan and Maine, collected in June.

Tech Bull. 152: 140 (misspelling of M. melanophaea submelanophaea).

Diagnosis. The female of M. melanophaea can be doi:10.3752/cjai.2011.18 82 recognized by the combination of the metasoma, which lacks pale apical fasciae on the terga, giving a distinctive pattern of all pale hairs (T1 and T2) and black hairs (T3-T6) in dorsal view, the mandible tapering gradually but continuously from base to apex in lateral view, with the inner mandibular tooth with a small excision at its apex, and dark pubescence ventrally on the mesosoma. They are most similar to M. circumcincta and M. gemula. Females of M. circumcincta have the inner mandibular tooth rounded and lacking the excision at its apex, and pale pubescence on the ventral surface of the mesosoma. Females of M. gemula have the upper and lower margins of the mandible parallel in lateral view from the base to a length subequal to width prior to tapering, and the broadly truncate inner mandibular tooth. The male of M. melanophaea can be recognized by the combination of 4-dentate mandibles, the front basitarsus largely pale in colour, dilated and excavated along the anterior margin, the apical rim of front tibia with a strongly flattened and rounded tubercle projecting posteriorly, and T5 with a pale apical fascia. They are most similar to M. circumcincta and M. gemula. Males of M. circumcincta have the apical rim of front tibia with a short and strongly tapered spine. Males of M. gemula have the front basitarsus dilated and excavated along the anterior margin, but with the colour mostly black (i.e., not conspicuously pale coloured), and lack a pale apical fasciae on T5.

Genitalia. Plate 2, Figure G37.

Discussion. Much confusion has arisen with use of the name Megachile femorata; Smith (1853) proposed it for a male specimen from North America, which was synonymous with M. latimanus Say, 1823. Provancher (1882) misdetermined males of M. melanophaea Smith, 1853 as M. femorata Smith, 1853. Subsequently, Smith (1879) used the name Megachile femorata for a new species from India (Bombay) (and Dalla Torre (1896) incorrectly placed the North America species M. femorata Provancher, 1882, 1883 (i.e., M. melanophaea) in synonymy). Because M. femorata Smith, 1853 is synonymous with M. latimanus, Megachile femoratella Cockerell, 1918, is the valid replacement name for M. femorata Smith, 1879 (not 1853) from India (M. Schwarz; pers. comm. to J. Ascher). Megachile melanophaea is a very common ground nesting species (Table 1).

Distribution. Widespread and abundant throughout Canada, from NF-BC, and into NT to Alaska.
