The Oriental carpenter bee, ''Xylocopa nasalis'', or ''Xylocopa (Biluna) nasalis'', is a species of carpenter bee. It is widely distributed in Southeast Asian countries. It is a major pollinator within its ecosystem and is often mistaken for a bumblebee.〔 The species leads a solitary lifestyle with a highly female-biased colony in the nest.〔 == Taxonomy and Phylogeny == ''X. nasalis'' is a member of the ''Xylocopa'' genus, first described in 1802 by French entomologist Pierre André Latreille. The genus name is derived from Ancient Greek and translates to ¨wood-cutter¨. ''Xylocopa'' is compromised specifically of carpenter bees, who build their nests in burrows in dead wood, bamboo, or structural timbers. The genus is also related to the genus of Ceratina, which are referred to as ¨small carpenter bees.”〔D Gerling, H.H.W. Velthuis, A. Hefetz (1989).
