   The world’s smallest species of bee is Perdita minima, a minute species of solitary bee just under 2 mm long and weighing only 0.333 mg. It is native to the southwestern USA, where it constructs a tiny nest in sandy desert soils, and feeds upon the nectar and pollen of spurge flowers.
   
   The U.S. Forest Service classifies this tiny bee as a solitary bee, meaning they are not as social as honey bees. A little less than two millimeters long, this bee species can be found in extremely small nests in the sandy soil found in the desert.
   
   This petite bee is very capable of packing large loads of pollen on its hairy legs.
