Santa Rita is a town located in the province of Colón, Panama. This area is threatened by various human activities that not only threaten the landscape and its vegetation, but also the integrity of the pollinators that live there. Considering this, we collected samples of bees from the Euglossini tribe in a fragmented area of Santa Rita, to get an idea of the population status in which these bees could be found at the site. Sampling was carried out one day during the dry season and one day in the rainy season of 2017. We collected 179 males belonging to 20 species, belonging to the three genera Euglossa (14 spp.), Eufriesea (4 spp.), and Eulaema (3 spp.). We know that these results are not enough to determine if Euglossini bee populations are stable or have decreased, but they give us a basis on the abundance and richness of the recorded species.
