To date, there has been relatively little formal research conducted on Australian stingless bees. However, the wealth of knowledge held by stingless bee enthusiasts is invaluable. Further scientific studies are needed to support these beekeepers and to help improve techniques in colony propagation, queen rearing, drone rearing, and, possibly ...

Chemical Ecology of Stingless Bees
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2017Stingless bees (Hymenoptera, Apidae: Meliponini) represent a highly diverse group of social bees confined to the world's tropics and subtropics. They show a striking diversity of structural and behavioral adaptations and are important pollinators of tropical plants.

![][1] For insects that live in colonies, social structure appears to be elevated to an art form. Numerous studies have documented that in insect societies the division of labour is typically based on age, whereby developmental maturation determines a specific job delegation ...

The American naturalist, 2016
The differentiation of workers into morphological subcastes (e.g., soldiers) represents an important evolutionary transition and is thought to improve division of labor in social insects. Soldiers occur in many ant and termite species, where they make up a small proportion of the workforce. A common assumption of worker caste evolution is that soldiers

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 ...
