Basic Information

Bombus Terrestris
Accession: ICG20028
Latin Name: Bombus Terrestris
Common Name: Buff-tailed Bumblebee
Taxonomy ID: 30195
Description: The bumble bee (Bombus terrestris) plays an important role as a pollinator. In addition, the bumble bee is a prominent key model insect due to its relatively complex behaviors, such as sociality, division, and colony management. This makes the bumble bee a prominent key model insect.
