Developmental timing of pupation and analysis of color pattern response to thermal stress in Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
… adaptability. As purported members of Müllerian mimicry complexes, the evolution of divergent and convergent color patterns within and among species appears to play an important role in bumble bee speciation. Distantly related species that share a common geographic range sometimes converge on …

Mathematical quantification and statistical analysis of bombus (hymenoptera:apidae) dorsal color patterns
Evolution of Müllerian mimicry [similarity in appearance that confers protection to two or more organisms which are unpalatable or hazardous to a common predator (Wickler 1965)] has been an important topic in the study of evolutionary adaptation and visual signaling via color patterns since Fritz …
