Geographic Range: Continental scale: very widespread, from the United Kingdom to Bulgaria. The extent of occurrence (EOO) is 4,152,227 km² and the area of occupancy (AOO) is 2,072 km². National scale: widespread in the sandy natural regions of Belgium as well as in the natural regions of Ardenne and Gaume.

Population: Continentals scale: very widespread with a stable population. National scale: large and stable / increasing populations. Rasmont et al. (1993) qualified the species as stable. Current population trend: Stable.

Habitat and Ecology: Flying period: from early May to late August and sometime early September (Peeters et al. 2012). Habitat: nutrient-poor meadows, heaths, roadsides on sandy or loess soils, acidic grasslands, coastal dunes and landslips, rarely on calcareous soils and absent from clay soils (Perkins 1923, Peeters et al. 2012, Else & Edwards 2018). Visited flowers: oligolectic on yellow Asteraceae (Perkins 1919, Peeters et al. 2012, Else & Edwards 2018) Nesting habits: in extensive aggregations in firm sandy soil. Parasites: Nomada similis (e.g. Westrich 1989), Nomada fabriciana (e.g. Gardner 1901), Sphocodes sp. (O’Toole pers. obs.), Miltogramma punctata (e.g. Gardner 1901).

Threats: This species is threatened by the elimination of flowers in edges, the intensive use of pesticides and the exploitation of heathland for commercial forestry, mineral extraction and infrastructure development.

Conservation Actions: This species is included in the National Red Lists or Red Data Books of the following two European countries: Norway (Endangered; Kålås et al. 2010); Sweden (Vulnerable; Gärdenfors 2010) ; the species is protected in Wallonia.
