-With arolium.
-Scopa present on hind legs.
-Size: 10 mm.

Thank you very much.

Miguel Ángel

Hi Miguel,

due to the fact, that submarginal cell 1 looks "much" smaller than smc 2, I'd go for Eucera sp. (female), rather worn off.
But I'm not 100% sure. If you have collected the specimen, check for further characters.

BR, Marc

It could be Eucera oraniensis?
