Abstract


After study of several entomological collections and the reference literature, the authors estimate that the fauna of Colletidae of the Sierra de Guadarrama (central Iberian Peninsula) consists of 42 species (31 belonging to the genus Hylaeus Fabricius, 1793 and 11 to the genus Colletes Latreille, 1802). Twenty-one species are recorded for the first time from these mountains and the presence of ten previously recorded ones is rejected. From a biogeographic point of view, the main elements are West Palaearctic and Circum-Mediterranean (nearly 50 % of the total number). Iberian endemisms represent a relevant portion (16.7 %). Phenology graphs show a maximum in summer months, with Hylaeus’ in July-August and Colletes’ in August.
