Welcome to the world bee checklist working group site. This site is being developed as a component of a larger effort to compile a global checklist of the worlds bee species.The goal of this site is to create a collaborative platform for communal curation of bee nomenclature and taxonomy. It will also have the capacity to link specimen references, images and literature to species records.
