As the volume of global trade expands, so does the risk of alien species reaching new regions. Bombus (Bombus) Terrestris (Linnaeus) (Hymenoptera: Apidae) is a bumblebee traded internationally for crop pollination and is now considered an invasive species in New Zealand, Japan, and throughout South America. We newly document its presence on Navarino Island, Cape Horn, Biosphere Reserve, Chile (55°S), the southernmost locality reached by this species to date.
