Carpenter bees are large, sturdy, shiny, black-coloured bees, some species having yellow markings on their heads. Carpenter bees may be mistaken for bumblebees. Carpenter bees (the genus Xylocopa in the subfamily Xylocopinae) are distributed worldwide with some 500 species of these carpenter bees. Their common name derives from the behavior of nearly all species to build their nests in burrows in dead wood, bamboo, or structural timbers.
