Best 1 Nomada marshamella

2 Triepeolus concavus

Triepeolus concavus is a North American cuckoo bee in the family Apidae. It is a kleptoparasite of solitary bees: the female places an egg in a host nest, and the developing larva uses provisions gathered for the host's offspring. Because it does not excavate and provision a normal nest for its own...

6.72 Fair
Why this score

Intricate kleptoparasitic behavior interests specialists, but dependence on host nests and low public familiarity weaken its general reputation.

3 Nomada lathburiana

Nomada lathburiana is a cleptoparasitic bee in the family Apidae, commonly called a nomad or cuckoo bee. It does not construct and provision a nest of its own; instead, the female enters nests of the ashy mining bee, Andrena cineraria, and places an egg there. The emerging larva uses the host’s poll...

6.65 Fair
Why this score

Specific association with ashy mining bee adds ecological interest; still a niche cuckoo bee.

4 Stelis phaeoptera

Stelis phaeoptera is a species of cuckoo bee in the family Megachilidae and is recorded in Europe. Cuckoo bees do not generally construct and provision their own nests; instead, they enter nests made by host bees and lay eggs there. Their larvae use provisions collected by the host and develop withi...

6.58 Fair
Why this score

Its specialized parasitic lifecycle has scientific value, though unobtrusive appearance, host exploitation, and limited recognition temper consensus.

5 Nomada goodeniana

Nomada goodeniana is a nomad bee in the family Apidae and a cleptoparasitic species associated with solitary mining bees. Females do not collect pollen for their own nests; instead, they enter the nests of host bees, including Andrena species, and lay eggs there. The offspring use provisions gathere...

6.55 Fair
Why this score

Widespread cleptoparasite with good study value; lacks pollen role and broad appeal.

6 Nomada ruficornis

Nomada ruficornis is a species of cuckoo bee in the family Apidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758 and has a red-and-yellow body pattern that gives it a wasp-like appearance. Rather than raising its own brood in a conventional nest, the female lays an egg in a host bee's nest, where the de...

6.50 Fair
Why this score

Wasp-like cuckoo bee with classic Nomada appearance; parasitism keeps consensus modest.

7 Nomada flava

Nomada flava is a European species of cuckoo bee in the family Apidae, described by Georg Wolfgang Franz Panzer in 1798. Nomada females enter the nests of other solitary bees and lay an egg in a provisioned brood cell, so the developing larva uses resources collected by the host. N. flava has a yell...

6.45 Fair
Why this score

Bright yellow-black cuckoo bee has visual appeal; low public familiarity and parasitic biology reduce score.

8 Nomada fabriciana

Nomada fabriciana is a species of cuckoo bee in the family Apidae. Females are cleptoparasites: instead of provisioning and raising their own brood in a completed nest, they enter the nest of a host bee, place an egg there, and leave the developing larva to use resources collected by the host. The s...

6.35 Fair
Why this score

Cuckoo bee named for Fabricius with parasitoid ecology; limited recognition and no pollination service.
