Well written by experts and enthusiasts, but clear and easy to read.
Would be a good addition to a junior school library.

... comme centre d'intérêt, ce livre est pour vous. L'identification se fait à partir d'un tableau combinant couleurs de l'abdomen et du thorax, distingue mâle et femelle et indique quelques critères clés. D'autres critères utiles à l'ID sont précisés dans les doubles pages qui présentent chaque espèce. Intéressera les naturalistes de la moitié nord du pays puisque ce guide couvre la GB et l'Irlande.

5.0 out of 5 stars good identification guide and beautiful pictures

I'm only a beginner when it comes to bumblebees. I'm confident though that this book, which combines a quick id chart with colour photographs of both sexes of all 25 species I'll be able to identify them. It also mentions the flowers or flower families a particular species would visit and gives simple advice as to how to attract them to your garden. Looking forward to February already!

5.0 out of 5 stars very handy guide
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 2, 2011

As an identification guide this book is very handy. I quickly learned to read those colourful bar codes, and have identified four different species of bumblebee in our street already. I understand that in some cases there are several possibilities. These ambiguous cases, the authors assure me, can easily be distinguished by a closer look at the genitalia. But maybe I'll just live with the uncertainty. Also intrigued to learn about the bumblebees' life cycle, and about their evil twins, the parasitic cuckoo bumblebees.
