Nouvelle révision du type d'Apis autumnalis Fabricius, 1793=Bombus ruderatus (Fabricius, 1775) (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Bombinae)

The author revised the holotype of Apis autumnalis Fabricius (1793). It is conspecific with Bombus ruderatus (Fabricius, 1775) and consubspecific with Bombus ruderatus eurynotus Vogt,1909. This last subspecies from Occidental and Central Europe must therefore be named Bombus (Megabombus) ruderatus autumnalis (Fabricius).
