This article is a five-fold expansion and is new enough and long enough. Neither of the hook facts are unique to this species as they apply to all Euglossine bees, but the fragrance fact is more interesting. The hook fact has an inline citation, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues with limited spot checks. This article is part of an educational project and does not adhere entirely to MOS guidelines, but it largely adheres to the DYK criteria. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:26, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
