How many species are in South of Portugal?

Species ID of Anthophora in Portugal is difficult to impoosible because of too many species. A common and very early species, which looks like your species, is Anthophora plumipes.

The last is an Eucera male. ID is not possible for me. In this genus exists also a lot of mediterreanea species.
