Bombus fraternus
It is unusual among Bombus species in having the hairs of the body appressed against the body surface rather than "fluffy" as is true for nearly all other species. The bumblebee is black, with two yellow bands across the thorax and the anterior part of the abdomen of the queen and worker. The male usually has only one yellow band.
