Australia is
to more than 2,000 species of native bees. Bee
say that hundreds of them have yet to be named. Dr Prendergast said: "[There are] many native bees that have evolved in Australia. We don't even know the
of them. They haven't been described. We don't know their
or where they nest." The Lucifer bee is "the first
member of this bee
to be described in more than 20 years". She added that there is a lot of "
we still have to discover". Prendergast is worried that the
wildflower and the new bee "could be at
from habitat disturbance and other threatening
like climate change".
