Cute, good-natured and sweetly buzzing - bumblebees are easy to like.
In Humlor i Sverige, Bo Mossberg, Sweden's foremost plant illustrator, and bumblebee expert Björn Cederberg present all 40 of the country's species. Fantastic watercolors show in detail how to tell the difference between different species and together with the accompanying text describes the appearance of bumblebees, how they behave, in which environments they live and which plants they prefer. Great emphasis has been placed on depicting the bumblebees in their proper environment. Bumblebees in Sweden explains, among other things, how bumblebees work, why bumblebee species look different and how changes in the Swedish landscape have affected the distribution of bumblebees. And so the bumblebee community is presented with spring queens, diligent workers, patrolling flying males and not least the parasitic bumblebees that parasitize other bumblebee species.
