Zonamegilla is a large subgenus of the bee genus Amegilla. Species of this subgenus can be found throughout Australia, Europe and Asia. Some Zonamegilla are commonly referred to as ‘blue-banded bees,’ however, the abdominal bands can also be orange, green, white or yellow, depending on the species.[1]
