Data from: Australian Lasioglossum + Homalictus Form a Monophyletic Group: Resolving the "Australian Enigma"
The bee genus Lasioglossum includes over 1000 species of bees distributed on all continents except Antarctica. Lasioglossum is a major component of the bee fauna in the Holarctic, Ethiopian, and Oriental regions, and is an important group for investigating the evolution of social behavior in bees. G...

The bee genus Lasioglossum includes over 1000 species of bees distributed on all continents except Antarctica.
