Description
Andrena (Cnemidandrena) freygessneri Alfken, 1904
Remarks. Ebmer (2001) clarified the species status of this taxon as distinct from A. simillima Smith, 1851. It has an alpine distribution, and Ebmer listed a single record for Italy, Val Ferret in Piedmont, north-east of Entrèves [today found in the Valle d’Aosta], collected 12–17 Aug 1925. Inspection of additional material confirms the presence of A. freygessneri in the provinces of Turin, Bolzano, and Aosta, but also remarkably highlights a population in Abruzzo in the province of L’Aquila. The females from Camporotondo were all collected on Centaurea cf. jacea, a scarce and local plant at this locality, an association that seems worth investigation, as in the Alps the species seems to rarely use Asteraceae pollen (Müller 2018).
