I asked Al Cooke about them, and he said:

“There are several species (in at least 3 families) that are generally  referred to a”solitary bees.”  In general they are pretty harmless and usually  serve somebeneficial purpose such as pollination and predation on less desirable  species.”

He referenced this article which is very informative:
