Bombus hypnorum (Linnaeus, 1758) This species has a Palearctic distribution. Certain Nearctic records are errors (Williams et al. 2014). The species is assessed as Least Concern in the IUCN Red List of European Bees (Rasmont et al. 2015). In the Iberian fauna, it spreads from Sierra de los Ancares in Cantabrian Range and the Pyrenees, from 750 and 1600 m of altitude (Ornosa & Ortiz-Sánchez 2004). At present, it has been sampled in the Pyrenees in altitude forest meadows with patches of subalpine scrub, in forests of Pinus uncinata and mountain supraforestal, between 1290 and 2035 m (Fig. 7), on Buglossoides arvensis (L.)
