Bombus Subterraneus Reintroduction.
Read this article in June in the Guardian Newspaper, and found this site a few days ago. Great project. Sometimes introduced species can have positive long term effects.

Ref:- Bombus subterraneus. A bee of VERY similar appearance has been seen, during the hot period of 2010′s Summer, flying over, taking nectar from clover, and disappearing into tunnels in, Mary Sadler Field, on Shotover Hill, Oxford. UK.
A short haired bee with very red tail final segments to the abdomen, of very similar appearance to Bombus subterraneus, was seen, flying over, taking nectar from clover, and disappearing down holes in, Mary Sadler Field, Shotover Hill, Oxford, during the hot period during the Summer of 2010. Maybe it isn’t extinct in UK?
Thanks for the comments. I’m not sure that the red tailed bumblebee is actually a Bombus Subt. I don’t think they have any red on them, but I’m no expert and really don’t have any working experience with them. Maybe it’s worth checking in with Nikki Gammans:http://www.bumblebeeconservation.org/nikkis_blog.html. She will most certainly know more.
