The Cockerell's Bumblebee, the rarest species of bumblebees in the United States, has recently been rediscovered. Last seen in New Mexico in 1956, the bumblebee was recently seen in Cloudcroft, New Mexico by scientists from the University of California Riverside. This bumblebee lives in an area of less than 300 square miles, which is the most limited range of any species of bumblebees in the world.
