In 1936, Noskiewicz proposed the name C. albescens for a new species of Colletes restricted to the Iberian Peninsula. The name is preoccupied by albescens Cresson, one of the common Nearctic members of the genus. I propose the name Colletes noskiewiczi (new name) for this species. A listing of the species in the index of the Noskiewicz work as albiescens is apparently a typographical error. The holotype and allotype of noskiewiczi (=albescens Nosk.) are in the collection of Dr. Dusmet-Maria in Madrid, Spain.
