What type of bee do I have?
Upload your pictures to get help identifying or to find out what kind of bee it is. If a bee or wasp gets identified as going extinct, we may also submit these photos to www.xerces.org or www.pollinator.org for further examinations of the pictures of: the social bee, solitary bee, bumble bee, wasp, hornet, or other species. If you have a bee hive or nest that is the size of a football or larger, submit your photo to our bee problem page.
You may also comment or leave feedback as to your opinion of the picture of the bee, hornet, wasp or other species, to share your view of what kind of bee you think is in the picture. Select a picture to leave comment. Once they are accurately identified, these pictures will be moved to our bee identification chart.
