Apis antignensis Fabricius, 1775, p. 380, was probably not a Bombua. 

 If it was, the '* Antigua" from which it was said to have come was ahnost 

 certainly not a West Indian island as no Bombus has been found native 

 in any of the Antilles. There is an Antigua in Guatemala, for example.

Franklin, 1913, p. 277, " It is not very common in northern New England 

 but apparently grows much more so southward. In southern New England it 

 is quite a common species, though less so than several others. It ranges south-

 where it again appears to be rare, and westward certainly as far as Ramsey
