Colour patterns, distribution and food plants of the Asian bumblebee Bombus bicoloratus (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Bombus bicoloratus is an important pollinator of wild flowers in the oriental region. We confirmed a total of 451 specimens of B. bicoloratus from China based on DNA sequences from mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) barcodes. Bombus bicoloratus is distributed mainly in tropical and sub...

| description | Bombus bicoloratus
is an important pollinator of wild flowers in the oriental region. We confirmed a total of 451 specimens of
B. bicoloratus
from China based on DNA sequences from mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI) barcodes.
Bombus bicoloratus
is distributed mainly in tropical and subtropical areas of southern China. This species exhibits a striking intraspecific colour-pattern polymorphism both in females and males. The distribution frequency of the different colour patterns is heavily skewed, with 50.9% of the workers sharing the same colour pattern that predominates in most locations. Workers from the islands of Hainan and Taiwan possess a very distinct colour pattern, and its spatial distribution is correlated with the climate factor irradiance.
Bombus bicoloratus
has been recorded to collect nectar and pollen from 14 plant families, indicating that this species is polylectic. This study will be helpful for recognising bumblebee species with variable colour patterns, especially
B. bicoloratus
, in Asia. |
