Andrena (Leucandrena) barbilabris

8. Andrena (Leucandrena) barbilabris (Kirby, 1802) Listed by Meena & Dey (2019): Bihar. Remarks Andrena barbilabris is a widespread Holarctic species, found from Europe to North America (Ascher & Pickering 2023). However, in Asia it is found in the north, and in the Central Palaearctic is found only in Kazakhstan, Russia, and Mongolia (Gusenleitner & Schwarz 2002; Osytshnjuk et al. 2008; Xu & Tadauchi 2009b). Its reported presence in Bihar is therefore considered to be impossible, and the species is removed from the Indian fauna.
