Abstract
The genus Andrena is one of the most speciose groups of bees, and because of its large degree of morphological variability it has continued to defy subgeneric classification. Recent advances have identified the species-poor group Cubiandrena Warncke, 1968 as both sister to all Andrena and deserving of recognition as a good genus. Previously thought to contain just two species, examination of undetermined material from Turkey has revealed the existence of a third Cubiandrena species, Cubiandrena nigripilosa sp. n., indicating that this country is the centre of diversity for the genus. http://www.zoobank.org/urn:urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:50EBDBDC-6EE2-429F-886D-0995E99FADE6
