Discussion
Reese noted that the center of distribution of var. rubicunda was Clearwater County, Idaho, and adjacent Ravalli County, Montana. Intermediates are common between var. contorta and var. rubicunda in areas of sympatry where the same species of Bombus pollinate both varieties during foraging (Reese).
