Specimens of Bombus and Megachile were collected during pollination studies of Cleistesiopsis bifaria and C. divaricata, and those of Danaus, Papilio, Battus, etc., were collected during pollination studies of Platanthera ciliaris. Various species of Euglossine bees were collected by Gregg at fragrance baits in Belize, while other euglossines were collected in several Central and South American countries by Dr. Calaway H.
