marion.lemenager@umontreal.ca editor 2025-08-05 eng Overview: This occurrence dataset contains the scientific names and label data of 513 specimens of bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Anthophila) housed in the Zoological Collections of the Department of Biology at Western University in London, Ontario, Canada. Specimens were collected in Canada, primarily in southern Ontario. Specimens were chosen for digitization based on meeting the following criteria: collected in North America; possessing complete label data (locality, minimally month and year of collection, collector's name); identified authoritatively to species; high specimen quality (head, thorax, abdomen intact). Funding: This project was financially supported by the Faculty of Science and the Western Sustainable Impact Fund, Western University.
