Many recent studies of insect and bird classification based on their sound have been published, but there is no thorough study that deals with the complex nature of buzzing sound characteristic of bumblebees. In this paper, a database of recorded buzzings of eleven species were preprocessed and segmented into a series of sound samples. Then we applied J48, MLP and SVM supervised classification algorithms on some predetermined sets of feature vectors. For five species the recognition rate was above 80% and for other six species it was above 60%. At the end we consider how to further improve the results.}, }
