After looking through Triepeolus species on BugGuide, I'm wondering if this might be Triepeolus eliseae. I have additional photos if they'd be helpful, but unfortunately only the one (included here in this entry) that shows the bee from the rear - and it's somewhat blurry as the bee was spinning on the flower when I snapped that picture, and it flew away a few seconds later. Bee found on rudbeckia, back yard.

Surprising for me. All over on Dasiphora fructicosa; rather late date. Flowering phenology of Dasiphora varies from place to place, can be as early as June (often August-September in fens around here). Wide vertex and apical areas of tergites, fairly dense punctures on scutum (vs. virginiana). Det confirmed with voucher specimens. Seems these guys and virginiana are probably most plausible Trachandrena in August-September in the northeast...

I think, will check - does this seem right @steverobinson97? Yellow pronotal lobes. Saw a couple females here on Helianthus decapetalus alongside Andrena aliciae

Saw a pair mating in this rose mallow flower. One left quickly but the other stuck around inside the flower.

Female, included here mainly for own use, maybe not verifiable from these photos. Though note the long thoracic hair and the waxy pollen load on the tibia and basitarus (but not the femur). This individual was observed foraging on Lyonia.
