Aiming to verify the nesting pattern of solitary bee species, a study was performed (October 2012 to March 2013 in Joinville, SC, southern Brazil, along a brick wall. There were found the following species Melitoma segmentaria (Emphorini), Caenohalictus incertus (Halictini) and Leiopodus lacertinus (Protepeolini). 147 nests showed activity in the sampling period , com distância média de 12,22 centímetros entre eles; destes 17 ninhos entre o solo e 90 cm de altura, estando agregados (R = 0,004, p <0,02). A abertura dos ninhos possuía, em média, 0,9 centímetro de diâmetro (n = 29); dois deles com uma torre de barro na entrada (0,6 cm de altura), de parede interna lisa e externa, áspera. Para C. incertus, 118 ninhos ativos foram achados (densidade 18,43/ m 2 ), com distância média de 8,18 centímetros entre eles; destes 98 ninhos entre o solo e 70 cm de altura, estando agregados (R = 0,066, p <0,09). Indivíduos de L. lacertinus foram verificados em todos os dias de observações, na entrada de ninhos de M. segmentaria. Anthrax cf. virgo emergiu de ninhos de M. segmentaria.
