A bumblebee (or bumble bee, bumble-bee, or humble-bee) is any of over 250 species in the genus Bombus, part of Apidae, one of the bee families. This genus is the only extant group in the tribe Bombini , though a few extinct related genera (e.g., Calyptapis ) are known from fossils .
The list presented here is a checklist of global bumblebee [1] species (Tribe Bombini) based on the Bombus phylogeny presented by Cameron et al (2007) [2] and grouped by subgenus following the revision of Williams et al (2008). [3]
The obscure bumblebee is very similar to the yellow-faced bumblebee (B. vosnesenskii), and the two can only be definitively told apart by the structure of the male genitalia. [3] The obscure bumblebee tends to have longer hairs, however, and yellow hairs are found on the underside of the abdomen, where B. vosnesenskii has only black hairs on ...
Bombus impatiens, the common eastern bumblebee, is the most commonly encountered bumblebee across much of eastern North America. [3] They can be found in the Eastern temperate forest region of the eastern United States , southern Canada , and the eastern Great Plains . [ 4 ]

Moreover, the red-tailed bumblebee displayed high “patch fidelity”, indicating that an individual bee was likely to return to a specific location. This species of bee thus can loosely be described as a “long distance forager”, but does not travel as far as some other Bombus species, thus it is typically described as having an ...
