Anyone out there know which species of chalkbrood attacks Osmia? or is the
material just mould on the pollen.
 
If not, here is a contact for someone who might know, or might be interested in
getting some samples to find out. He has worked extensively on the moulds,
yeasts and bacteria of leafcutter bee nesting material. Also on the use of
paraformaldehyde as a nest fumigant.
sorry I don't have a high tech address for him.
