Note:
The map shows the projected change in the climatically suitable area for the bumblebee Bombus terrestris (the largest and one of
the most numerous bumblebee species in Europe) for two time horizons and under the combined climate–land use scenarios SEDG
(Sustainable European Development Goal, based on SRES B1) and GRAS (Growth Applied Strategy, based on SRES A2).
