Abstract
A new species of the extinct bee genus Ctenoplectrella Cockerell (Megachilinae: Ctenoplectrellini) is described and figured from two females preserved in a single piece of middle Eocene (Lutetian) Baltic amber. Ctenoplectrella gorskii Engel, sp. n. is distinguished from other species of the genus most notably in the venation of the forewing.
