Svastra aegis, F, Face, GA, Baker County
One of the southern Svastra species. Big Bee, uncommon and probably restricted to areas of relatively intact native flora, which are getting to be harder and harder to find. The specimen is from the Flatwoods of Georgia in an area maintained as longleaf pine through burning and careful forestry techniques.Collected by Sabrie Breland And photographed by Brooke Alexander.
The grass so little has to do,
A sphere of simple green,
With only butterflies to brood,
And bees to entertain,
