Despite its name this species is not our most widespread species, as it is now rarely encountered in the northern portion of its historical range."
Nests are categorized as existing cavities, and social behavior is categorized as primitively eusocial or semisocial (Selfridge et al., 2017).
Parasitized by the locally rare Variable Cuckoo Bumble Bee.
