Leioproctus fulvescens
Leioproctus fulvescens is a species of bee native to the South Island of New Zealand. Adults are about 10 mm long with dense characteristically yellow to orange-brown hair; this feature distinguishes them from other New Zealand Leioproctus species, which have white to cream hairs. The bees fly primarily in the spring and summer, with the majority of individuals between November to March, though some have been observed as early as September.
