Here is the only Zadontomerus of the Eastern U.S. (Note:  I will give anyone $100.00 if they name their kid Zadontomerus ... first names only).  Ceratina cockerelli.  The other more blueish species are all in the subgenus Ceratinula (also a good name for a child).  As an aside, giving a child a "different" name is always a plus in my book, it is like feeding them linguistical antibodies, for example, they are way less likely to spend all day on a cell phone if their name is Zadontomerus than Tim.  No one does their child a favor by naming them Tim.  Ok, back to bees (society building is always exhausting).  This species is small more black green than blue green and smaller and more southern than the others.  It possibly is also more fond of sandy environs.   Like other species of Ceratina it likely builds its nest in the cut stems of plants.  Not much is know about this species life history, so if you are looking for things to do then studying this species nesting biology should be right up there.  Photo taken by Sierra Williams.
