The increasing interest in pollinators is leading to many new resources that share information about native bees and native plants. Here are some of my favorites:

Nelson DeBarros at Penn State created an interesting brochure "Conserving Wild Bees in Pennsylvania" http://pubs.cas.psu.edu/FreePubs/pdfs/uf023.pdf
Rachel Winfree's lab at Rutgers has one for New Jersey "Native Bee Benefits"

And finally, for global interest, here is a blog about insects and plants in India
