Beneficial molecules for bee colony nutrition and health are also nutritional and medicinal for humans consuming bee products. Stingless bee species are a source of entomological variability in the honey and pollen they produce, besides the plants they forage and the microbial associations receiving particular attention in classic microbiology, food ...

Bombinae and Meliponinae are the only reasonably close relatives of honeybees. Since Meliponinae have many biological characteristics in common with Apinae (storage of honey, production and use of wax, perennial colonies of sometimes considerable size, division of labor), and since workers of some of the (bigger) species at first glance greatly ...

The tropics and subtropics are home to thousands of different types of bees. One bee group that frequently calls an observer’s attention are the stingless bees or Meliponini. In the Neotropics, for example, about half of all bees that one is likely to see on flowers belongs to this group (Chap. 9).

Microorganisms Associated with Stingless Bees
2012The highly diversified group of stingless bees presents an associated microbiota that is suspected to be responsible for transforming pollen to bee bread or for the formation of honey. These microorganisms may also play a role on honey maturation and the biochemical modification of stored honey.

Suicidal Biting in Stingless Bees
Bee World, 2015Stingless bees are widespread and diverse in the tropics. At our field site in Sao Paulo State, Brazil, there are dozens of species and almost every other tree contains a nest, making it perfect fo...

Palynology Serving the Stingless Bees
2012Palynological investigation of pollen loads and honey of stingless bees allows recognizing bee floral preferences in different localities, the local vegetation types, and quality of the bee products. Data on pollen analysis of samples obtained in several Brazilian regions were studied. Additional elements were also noted, such as bacteria, plant hairs,
