Diadasia rinconis is a species of chimney bee in the family Apidae. It is found in Central America and North America.[1][2][3] In the Sonoran Desert, D. rinconis is considered the "cactus bee" as it feeds almost exclusively on a number of Sonoran Desert cactus species, its life cycle revolving around the flowering of the native species of cacti.[4]
