title: Table 3 in Widespread polytypic species or complexes of local species? Revising bumblebees of the subgenus Melanobombus world-wide (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Bombus)

description: Table 3. List of selected available formal names in the species group for taxa of the subgenus Melanobombus von Dalla Torre, 1880 (for details of the references, see the text). These names are associated informally with barcoded specimens as proxies for types. ‘Tail’ colour refers to the predominant colour of the pale hair on metasomal terga 4–6 (T4–6); project ID refers to the specimen number (ML n) of the proxy type in the Melanobombus project database.
