For some reason this species' coloration tends towards bright yellow while other eastern bumbles are more subdued in their yellowness. It varies with their age (the sun fade bumbles plumage) but a nice lemon yellow usually means this species. In our area, its distribution largely stops at the Fall Line, few are recorded on the coastal plain...why? Good question. This one comes from the collections of Laura Russo from Centre County, Pennsylvania.
