Species text
Colletes marginatus is most typically associated with the semi-fixed mid dune area of coastal dunes but there are also inland records from the Brecks. This species apparently prefers looser sand than other Colletes species, and in any of these situations flower-rich areas are required for foraging (Falk, 1991). Confirmed records are almost exclusively from southern coasts from Camarthenshire to West Norfolk. In Essex the species is extremely rare, with records only from a handful of sites, one lost and one threatened by development. References
