Alloparenting, in which adults help to raise nondescendent offspring, is the hallmark of both cooperatively breeding and eusocial animal groups. Previous studies of the small carpenter bee, Ceratina calcarata, showed that mothers sometimes produce very small daughters, reminiscent of eusocial workers, suggesting retention of a complex social trait ...
