The Bee Land-use Change Project dataset comprises the records of all pinned Bombus hortorum, B.hypnorum, B.lapidarius, B.muscorum, B.pascuorum, B.ruderatus and B.sylvarum material collected in the UK and housed at the Natural History Museum, London. The dataset comprises 6753 specimens.

Specimen labels were removed from each specimen and imaged alongside the specimen. Dorsal images were taken of each specimen. Each specimen record has been published with a unique identifier (barcode), taxon information, label metadata transcription, locality georeferencing and an image capturing both the specimen and its associated labels.

This collection was digitised as part of the Museum's Digital Collections Programme and funded by NERC award NE/P012914/1 "Bee sensitivity to a century of agricultural land-use change".
