Diadasia is a genus of bees in the family Apidae.

Their host plants include asters, bindweeds, cacti, mallows, and willowherbs, although mallows are the most common and likely ancestral host plant for the whole genus.

[1] In the Sonoran Desert, Diadasia rinconis is considered the "cactus bee" as it feeds almost exclusively on a number of Sonoran Desert cactus species, its life cycle revolving around the flowering of the native species of cacti.

[2] Members of this genus are often attacked by a variety of parasitoids from the families Bombyliidae, Mutillidae, Ripiphoridae and Meloidae.

[3] These 42 species belong to the genus Diadasia.
