First record of <i>Centris</i> (<i>Paracentris</i>) <i>lanosa</i> (Apidae: Centridini) in Georgia, United States

Centris (Paracentris) lanosa Cresson, the wooly oil-digger bee, is a specialized oil-collecting species associated with Krameria lanceolata (Torrey) (Krameriaceae). The species is known from two disjunct populations in the southeastern and southwestern United States, with southeastern records previously limited to northern Florida. Here, we report the first occurrence of C. lanosa in Georgia. On 13 May 2024, we collected a female specimen of C. lanosa in a blue vane trap located in a mixed pine-hardwood riparian buffer within privately owned timberland in Treutlen County, Georgia. This new record extends the known range of the species northward by more than 250 km.
