Halictus tectus is a species of sweat bee in the family Halictidae.[1][2][3] Its native range extends from southern Europe to Mongolia.[4] It was introduced from southern Europe to the east coast of the United States, being first recorded there in 2000, with records from Maryland/Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania, and New Hampshire.[4][5] In the U.S., Sam Droege of the USGS Bee Inventory and Monitoring Lab noted that this species seemingly prefers "highly disturbed areas with European weeds".[4]
