The HBRG Bumblebee Atlas - Current maps
This page shows the current maps of HBRG bumblebee data direct from NBN Atlas. Records from 1990-2005 plotted in the atlas are shown in the left-hand map in blue. Those from 1990 to present are in the right-hand map in green. Only HBRG records on the NBN Atlas are included (HBRG Insects Dataset). The dataset is normally updated twice annually. Apparent changes in distribution outside Highland should be treated with caution as recording effort there has been very limited. Only expansion in range will be apparent - contraction will not show up in this display.
