As I stated in a comment below the 1st image in this series, I'm speculating the CA posts below by Joyce Gross, Jim Moore, and Hartmut Wisch are the same species as that in my post here:

           

I adjusted the color/tint for some of the photos in the collage above, since color cast effects superficially made them look somewhat different. From counting 11 flagellomeres, I'm certain Joyce's and Hartmut's posts above are males...and almost certain Jim's is as well. (Osmia species are typically sexually dimorphic.)
