Abstract:

Bumble Bee Watch is a collaborative effort to track and conserve North America’s bumble bees. Bumble Bee Watch is a community science project through the partnership of The Xerces Society for Invertebrate Conservation, York University, the University of Ottawa, Wildlife Preservation Canada, BeeSpotter, The Natural History Museum, London, and the Montreal Insectarium. Bumble bee species occurrence data included in this dataset is derived from photo-based observations of bumble bees collected and submitted by community scientists in the United States and Canada. These data will help researchers determine the status and conservation needs of bumble bees; Help locate rare or endangered populations of bumble bees; and Learn about bumble bees, their ecology, and ongoing conservation efforts.
This bibliographic record pertains to a 2022 data download for occurrence data in Idaho from 2021. Microsoft Excel spreadsheet of 2021 observation data for multiple species of Bumblebee in Idaho. 2253 observation records were provided (four of which were not bumble bees).
