Observations on bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea) visitors of flowers of Solanum palinacanthum (Solanaceae) were accomplished in Cruz das Almas - State of Bahia, Brazil (12o40’39"S; 39o06’23"W; 225m) from 1994 to 1995. Fourteen species of bees, belonging the families Andrenidae, Apidae and Halictidae, were identified. The peaks of activity of collection of materials by bees occurred at 9:00 A.M. and 3:00 P.M. Considering the abundance of specimens, transported pollen load and time of visit by flower, Bombus atratus, B. morio and Eulaema nigrita were considered as the main polinizators.
