List Of Bumblebee Species
The list presented here is a checklist of world bumblebees (Tribe Bombini) based on the ''Bombus'' phylogeny presented by Cameron ''et al'' (2007) and grouped by subgenus following the revision of Williams ''et al'' (2008). The bumblebee fossil record extends back to the Late Eocene in North America and England with the most diversity of fossils found during the Miocene. The fossil species were discussed and revised by Dehon ''et al'' (2019).

Checklist
A checklist is a type of job aid used in repetitive tasks to reduce failure by compensating for potential limits of human memory and attention. It helps to ensure consistency and completeness in carrying out a task. A basic example is the " to do list". A more advanced checklist would be a schedule, which lays out tasks to be done according to time of day or other factors. A primary task in checklist is documentation of the task and auditing against the documentation. Use of a written checklist can reduce any tendency to avoid, omit or neglect important steps in any task. Applications *aid in aviation safety to ensure that critical items are not overlooked. Example: Pre-flight checklists * Used in quality assurance of software engineering, to check process compliance, code standardization and error prevention, and others. * Often used in industry in operations procedures * In civil litigation to deal with the complexity of discovery and motions practice. An example is the ope ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bombus Balteatus
''Bombus balteatus'', the golden-belted bumble bee, is a species of bumblebee with a boreal and high altitude distribution in northern Eurasia and North America. Range and distribution This species is found in Finland, northern Sweden, Russia, and North America from arctic Alaska, Canada, and mountain ranges in the United States such as the Sierra Nevada and the White Mountains down south to New Mexico. Their preferred habitat includes high altitude and boreal regions, and they are often found at higher elevations than the tree line. ''Bombus balteatus'' is often most abundant where ''Castilleja'', '' Chrysothammnus'', and ''Mertensia'' plant species are common. Some populations of bees, including in the Rocky Mountains, specifically Mount Evans, Niwot Ridge and Pennsylvania Mountain have declined in the 21st century. Morphology ''Bombus balteatus'' is a long-tongued bumblebee. Often the tongue length reaches two-thirds or more the length of the body. This morphological ...

Bombus Lucorum - Centaurea Scabiosa - Keila
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. They are found primarily in higher altitudes or latitudes in the Northern Hemisphere, although they are also found in South America, where a few lowland tropical species have been identified. European bumblebees have also been introduced to New Zealand and Tasmania. Female bumblebees can sting repeatedly, but generally ignore humans and other animals. Most bumblebees are social insects that form colonies with a single queen. The colonies are smaller than those of honey bees, growing to as few as 50 individuals in a nest. Cuckoo bumblebees are brood parasitic and do not make nests or form colonies; their queens aggressively invade the nests of other bumblebee species, kill the resident queens ...

Bombus Nevadensis
''Bombus nevadensis'', the Nevada bumblebee, is a species of bumblebee. It is native to North America, where it occurs from Alaska to California in the west, and east to Wisconsin, and in Arizona, New Mexico, and Mexico. Description A bumblebee with a long proboscis (tongue) and a short, dense fur, the females (queens and workers) have an entirely black head, while the face and top of the head of the male are yellow. The thorax is yellow, sometimes with a hairless, black spot in the middle. The three first terga (abdominal segments) are yellow, while the rest of the abdomen is black. However, the tip of the tail is more or less red in the male. The average body length is for the queen, (worker) and (male). The black and gold bumblebee (''Bombus auricomus'') is sometimes considered a subspecies of this species, ''B. nevadensis auricomus''. Genetic and morphological evidence supports them as separate species.Hatfield, R., et al. 2015''Bombus nevadensis''.The IUCN Red List of T ...

Bombus Confusus
''Bombus confusus'' is a species of bumblebee found in Austria, Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Switzerland ). Swiss law does not designate a ''capital'' as such, but the federal parliament and government are installed in Bern, while other federal institutions, such as the federal courts, are in other cities (Bellinzona, Lausanne, Luzern, Neuchâtel .... Appearance The functional morphology of ''Bombus confusus'' has been investigated (as well as others), and found that the males have enlarged eyes and a frontal zone with enlarged facets. This can be associated with improved spatial resolution and contrast sensitivity, all of which connect to the mating of the males. Reproduction Visual search for females was thought to be the only observed pre-mating behavior in ''Bombus confusus''. Studies confirm that alongside visual search, labial gland secretion is also used to attract females. Refer ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bombus Auricomus
''Bombus auricomus'' is a species of bumblebee known by the common name black and gold bumblebee. It is native to eastern North America, including Ontario and Saskatchewan in Canada and much of the eastern United States, as far west as the Great Plains. This species creates above-ground nests in grassland and other open habitat types. It feeds at many types of plants, including thistles, prairie clovers, delphiniums, teasels, echinacea, bergamot, penstemons, clovers, and vetches ''Vicia'' is a genus of over 240 species of flowering plants that are part of the legume family ( Fabaceae), and which are commonly known as vetches. Member species are native to Europe, North America, South America, Asia and Africa. Some othe .... This bee was previously thought to be conspecific with the Nevada bumblebee (''B. nevadensis''), but the two are now considered separate species.

Bombus Polaris
''Bombus polaris'' is a common Arctic bumblebee species. ''B. polaris'' is one of two bumblebees that live above the Arctic Circle. The other is its social parasite ''Bombus hyperboreus''. ''B. polaris'' is a social bee that can survive at near freezing temperatures. It has developed multiple adaptations to live in such cold temperatures. B. polaris has a thicker coat of hair than most bees, utilizes thermoregulation, and makes insulated nests. Taxonomy and phylogeny ''Bombus polaris'' is part of the family Apidae, which is part of the larger class of Insecta. Apidae is the largest family of bees, including several species of bees used by humans for honey consumption. ''B. polaris'' is part of the subgenus '' Alpinobombus'' along with '' Bombus alpinus'', '' Bombus balteatus'', ''Bombus hyperboreus'', and '' Bombus neoboreus''. ''Alpinobombus'' bees occur in arctic and high alpine regions. It is of the Bombini tribe, which feeds on pollen or nectar. Description and identificat ...
