The essential guide for identifying the bumble bees of North America

More than ever before, there is widespread interest in studying bumble bees and the critical role they play in our ecosystems. Bumble Bees of North America is the first comprehensive guide to North American bumble bees to be published in more than a century. Richly illustrated with color photographs, diagrams, range maps, and graphs of seasonal activity patterns, this guide allows amateur and professional naturalists to identify all 46 bumble bee species found north of Mexico and to understand their ecology and changing geographic distributions.

The book draws on the latest molecular research, shows the enormous color variation within species, and guides readers through the many confusing convergences between species. It draws on a large repository of data from museum collections and presents state-of-the-art results on evolutionary relationships, distributions, and ecological roles. Illustrated keys allow identification of color morphs and social castes.

A landmark publication, Bumble Bees of North America sets the standard for guides and the study of these important insects.

  • The best guide yet to the 46 recognized bumble bee species in North America north of Mexico
  • Up-to-date taxonomy includes previously unpublished results
  • Detailed distribution maps

I highly recommend this pillow, it’s great for someone with neck or back problems.
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Size: Queen (Pack of 1)
I absolutely love this pillow! When it says it’s adjustable it definitely means that. When you first get it, it’s hard to believe that it’s going to be anything but put it in the dryer for a few minutes and it becomes so large. You will definitely have to remove some of the stuffing unless you like a really large fluffy pillow. The stuffing is high-quality and once it has been put into the dryer it becomes a fibrous type material that can be fluffed over and over and go back to the same size. It seems to be a high-quality cover on the outer portion and is thick and has a slight cooling affect. It has a separate cover on the inner portion covering the foam stuffing. I ordered this because I have neck problems and it has been super comfortable for me because I’m able to adjust it multiple times depending on my needs for the particular night when I lay down. Having the extra stuffing means that if the pillow does happen to go flat I can always add the extra that I took out when I received it. It did have a slight odor when it first came, but after putting it in the dryer, it went away immediately. I do think that’s only due to the plastic that it’s shipped in not anything with the pillow. I think this pillow is well worth it price and I would highly recommend it for anyone that is a side or back sleeper or has any type of neck problems.

Amazing!
Size: King (Pack of 1)
Such a great pillow I’m buying another one! You can add or subtract stuffing to your liking. It’s really nice quality, quilted and soft. Best pillow ever. Super comfy and great sleep. Pretty firm with all the stuffing. Perfect the way it came with stuffing on the side. My husband loves it and now I want one.

Totally worth the money

Right off the bat, the packaging is absolutely adorable and felt like I was buying a premium product. I love that this pillow is adjustable and as a side sleeper, I needed a pillow that is both firm and supportive of my neck. This hits all the boxes. We will be buying more of these for our bed!

Great value, perfect pillow
Color: White, Size: Standard (Pack of 1)
It has been so difficult to find a shredded memory foam pillow for a decent price, and i am super happy with this one! My old pillow was getting flat in the middle when i slept on it so i need a new one. This is super comfortable and the filling is packedddd. Im glad it comes with the ability to remove foam to get the perfect fluffiness and support needed for your personal preference
