| An Apis florea worker foraging on Mexican heather (cuphea hysopifolia, Lythraceae). This cultivated plant was popular in Yunnan and I have seen dorsata, florea, mellifera and cerana all foraging on the same plant! Viewed: 3151 times. | | | |

| Three dwarf honey bees (Apis florea) foraging on asters in a Thai flower market. After a bunch of bee scientisits discussing the nest should not be far, we found a nest on a tree above the roof not far away. I also saw Apis cerana foraging on cabbage flowers but did not get a good shot. We failed to see any dorsata foraging in the market, but did see stingless bees also. Chiangmai, Thailand. March 23, 2000. Viewed: 3105 times. | | |
