Andrena dorsata

A smallish Andrena at around 10mm. Andrena dorsata is common in the south of the UK but scarcer in the Midlands. There are neat, pale bands of hair on the abdomen. Thoracic hairs are reddish/orange. The pollen baskets (scopae) are pale with a rather "bald" area on the upper surface. It has two flight periods; one in the spring and another between July and September.
