Asiatic honey bee

Apis cerana

Description:

Asiatic honey bee, is a species of honey bee found in southern and southeastern Asia,

Habitat:

In my garden.

Notes:

Asiatic Honey Bees communicate with their nest members about the presence and location of food and water sources by means of waggle dance and round dance languages. The waggle and round dances of this species are performed in the dark on a vertical comb surface of a multicomb nest, so their wagging motions are conveyed via vibrations.
