Notes on the nest architecture of Centris (Centris) caxiensis Ducke (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in an urban dry forest fragment in northeastern Brazil

Abstract We described the nest architecture and the brood cell morphology of the oil-collecting bee Centris caxiensis. The nest is a single and unbranched tunnel measuring between 37 and 49 cm in length slant obliquely into the ground. There were one or two brood cells at the end of the gallery orie...
