Another find today was this enormous queen bumblebee Bombus (Megabombus) argillaceus on Mt. Kucelj. I'd never noticed one before so was pleased to be able to ID it with some certainty. Overjoyed to see it was described by my 'local hero' Giovanni Scopoli in 1763.@wurflenii pic.twitter.com/OIG9jxJvNN

Please can anyone confirm the ID of this bumblebee as Bombus (Megabombus) argillaceus captured foraging on nectar from buffalo / golden currant (Ribes aureum) in north-eastern Turkey in May? Plant originates from North America. pic.twitter.com/7b7fpVFRsT
