The list presented here is a
checklist of global
bumblebee[1] species (Tribe
Bombini) based on the Bombusphylogeny presented by Cameron et al (2007)[2] and grouped by
subgenus following the revision of Williams et al (2008).[3] 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).[4]
