Andrena (Cryptandrena) ventricosa DOURS, 1873

Probably polylectic although details are lacking. Mavromoustakis (1960) lists Fabaceae (as Leguminosae) as a forage source on Rhodos.

Scheuchl (in prep.) lists Erodium cicutarium (Geraniaceae) and Apiaceae as forage sources.

The females of the first generation collect pollen from flowers of Thymus serpyllum (Lamiaceae) and the second generation collect from flowers of the Apiaceae (Dylewska 1987, Osytshnjuk et al. 2005).

Mavromoustakis (1948; 1951) lists Scandix pecten-veneris (Apiaceae) and Calendula persica (Asteraceae) as forage sources in Cyprus
