Summary[edit]

Description

This is our third gynandromorph on the Flickr site. A gynandromorph is a bee that exhibits characteristics of both sexes. In the other two species (Lasioglossum and Bombus) the split was bilateral..one side male and the other, female. In this Anthidium oblongatum (an introduced species) almost the entire bee is female with the apparent exception of having a seventh abdominal segment and genitalia. Note on the dorsal view the incomplete nature of the typical flange at the end of the segment. This specimen was collected by David Biddinger in his Penn State Apple Orchard Experiment Station Kingdom in South Central Pennsylvania. Picture was taken by Brooke Alexander.

Further in Summer than the Birds Pathetic from the Grass A minor Nation celebrates Its unobtrusive Mass. No Ordinance be seen So gradual the Grace A pensive Custom it becomes Enlarging Loneliness. Antiquest felt at Noon When August burning low Arise this spectral Canticle Repose to typify Remit as yet no Grace No Furrow on the Glow Yet a Druidic Difference Enhances Nature now
