Reported as an adult
Usually reported as an adult early May to mid-October, middle week Aug 30 – Sep 5.
From 908 records that are marked as adults. Not every photo is marked with a life stage, so this shows when people reported it as an adult, not when adults are about.
Reported as a larva
No records here are marked as larvae yet, so there is no larva season to show. One needs at least 20 records from 5 different years.
What these results show
These results show when people recorded a species, not when or where it occurs. Missing weeks and low counts do not mean absence or scarcity, and counts are not abundance. Contributed records reflect where, when and what people chose to observe.
Brown-belted Bumble BeeBombus griseocollisOften confused in Ohio: 372 identifications in Ohio named one where the other was meant
Two-spotted Bumble BeeBombus bimaculatusOften confused in Ohio: 263 identifications in Ohio named one where the other was meant

From iNaturalist’s similar-species counts, refreshed monthly: confusions in Ohio first, then worldwide. Only species with an Ohio result are listed.
When each is reported
All recordsUsually early May to mid-October, middle week late August · 10,439 records

Not every photo is marked with a sex or a sign, so these show when people reported each, not when it happens.

From 5,885 records placed within 100 m, beside all Ohio records placed the same way. People record where they go, so this shows where records come from, not where the species lives. Land cover: USGS Annual NLCD, 2025 (opens in a new tab)
Sources
Where these results come from
Records from iNaturalist research-grade observations and expert-identified GBIF datasets, CC0, CC BY and CC BY-NC. Sources
Seasons use the published method and its evidence thresholds. Methods
A spreadsheet (CSV) with a link to each record, on iNaturalist or GBIF. Records whose location was hidden by the observer or the source are counted but not linked.
