These small bees are named after nomads and are often referred to as homeless bees. Can be seen from April to August that will consist of two broods. The females will enter the nests of Andrena species of mining bees and will lay an egg on the host cell wall. The larvae from the Nomad bee will hatch and proceed to eat the Andrena egg.
