Apis cerana indica
These are less aggressive than any wild bees and also less swarming behavior and can be easily used for beekeeping.
They usually build multiple combs nest in some tree hallows and some man made structures. These bees can adapted to living in cavities in some human structures and in purpose-made hives, and their nesting habit means that they can potentially colonize temperate or mountain areas with prolonged winters or cold temperatures.
It is one of the important pollinating agents for coconut palms.
