Bumble, digger, mining, and sweat bees are bees that burrow in the ground. They respectively belong to the Apidae, Anthoporidae, Andrenidae, and Halictidaeinsect families. They collectively may be referred to as burrowing, earth-nesting, and ground-dwelling bees even though bumblebees -- which are social and build colonies -- will be excluded from the designation solitary bees.
