What is a bramblebee?

A bramblebee, scientifically known as Masoniella or Bombus species, is a type of bumblebee that primarily nests in bramble bushes. These bees are important pollinators, especially for wildflowers and fruit plants. They are characterized by their fuzzy bodies and distinctive coloration, which can vary among species. Due to habitat loss and environmental changes, bramblebee populations are currently facing threats.
