NEW RECORDS OF ANDRENA BEES (HYMENOPTERA, ANDRENIDAE) IN PROTECTED AREAS OF THE SOUTHERN TRANSBAIKALIA

Previously unpublished material on 20 species of sand bees collected in the Daursky Nature Reserve and its subordinate state wildlife sanctuaries has been studied. Three species (Andrena bicolor Fabricius, 1775, A. romankovae Osytshnjuk, 1995 and A. valeriana Hirashima, 1957) are recorded for the first time from the Zabaykalsky Region. Now, 51 species of Andrena bees are known from Zabaykalsky Region, but the record of A. cordialisMorawitz, 1877 remains doubtful. The list of Andrena bee species in the Daursky Nature Reserve was increased from 4 to 19, in the “Tsasucheysky Bor” from 11 to 23, and in the “Valley of Dzeren” from 3 to 8 species.
