This almost white bee was digging in the dune sand, probably constructing a nest.
Collected from leaf litter in an old milkwood forest at Grootbos with Peter, Geke and Paula. Thanks Geke for your coordinates and sharp eyes that located these and Paula for your help locating the ants during the photography session!
Photographed at 5x magnification. Measured 2.7-2.8mm. Peter, I leave the species level ID of this one for you.
