I am pretty sure that this one is a stingless bee (Trigona spp). She seems to be gathering resin from this flower of euphorbia (Euphorbia milii, Euphorbiaceae). Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Yunnan, China. April 2, 2002.

A stingless bee coming to share a cookie with me. I must be VERY entomophilic (or all the bugs are zachophilic :) -- I have had so many different insects landing on me! or perhaps they just want to have their photo taken...Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China. April 2, 2002.
