Yes. Some endangered bee species include the stingless Melipona beecheii and Melipona Yucatanica of the Americas.

In Ireland, four species of bumblebee are endangered, whilst in britain, another eight species are either endangered or under threat. The Shrill-Carder Bee and the Great Yellow bumblebee of the UK are under threat, for example, but not currently officially endangered. Three species are no longer found in the area.

Although some people believe the honeybee is endangered, it is not. However, though not officially listed as endangered, the US has lost over 70% of its honey bees and other pollinators, through a suspect virus.
