Bee facts

Bees by country

See documented bee records by country. The counts describe data coverage, not conservation impact.

How to read this

  • Documented species counts are evidence-based minimums from the cited release, not a full census.
  • A low count can mean data gaps or limited surveys, not necessarily few bees in that area.
  • Missing national records appear as “No data”. We never show them as zero.
  • Areas without a published estimate show “No estimate”.
  • These figures describe catalog coverage. They are not a measure of conservation impact or Adopt The Bees program impact.
