The following Hymenoptera families and species were observed visiting flowers of Polypremum procumbens at Archbold Biological Station (Deyrup 2015):
Halictidae: Lasioglossum nymphalis
Megachilidae: Megachile brevis pseudobrevis
Sphecidae: Cerceris blakei, Microbembex monodonta
Vespidae: Stenodynerus fundatiformis
Use by animals
Deyrup observed this bee, Dialictus nymphalis, on P. procumbens (Deyrup et al 2002). Cover of P. procumbens decreased significantly through time after three grazing treatments (no grazing by deer or cattle, grazing by deer, or grazing by deer and cattle) in thinned and clearcut forested areas (Brockway and Lewis 2003).
