1, Queen Bee: The social division of labor is to lay eggs full-time and shoulder the social responsibility of reproducing offspring. Its body is very strong, its belly is very big, and its weight is twice that of a worker bee. During the spawning period, the queen bee feeds the worker bees with royal jelly every day to promote rapid metabolism and maintain strong spawning ability.
2, drones: social division of labor is mating with the queen bee. Drones are male "citizens" in bee colonies developed from unfertilized eggs. Every mating season, sexually mature drones will automatically gather in the air to attract the queen bee. After mating, the drone died immediately because all the reproductive organs were pulled down.
3, worker bees: the social division of labor is the most, and the task is the heaviest. It can be said that except for the respective tasks of the queen bee and the drone, other work in the bee colony is undertaken by the worker bees. Worker bees are female organ hypoplasia, but many of their structures are specialized to meet the needs of work. For example, the wind bag in their foregut is specialized into a honey sac for storing nectar.
Species of bees
1, Chinese bee: small body, black head and chest, queen bee about 17.5mm long, black or brownish red body color, covered with black and dark yellow fluff. The worker bee is about 1 1mm in length, 5mm in beak length, and its ventral dorsal plate is a black and yellow ring. The abdomen of Chinese bees in high latitude and high mountains is dark, while the abdomen of Chinese bees in low latitude and plain is yellow, and the whole body is covered with short gray hair. The unmanned plane is about 12.5mm long, black or dark brown in color and covered with gray fluff.
2. Italian bee: smaller than black bee, with slender abdomen and long kiss, so it can be used for red clover pollination. Chitin in the webbed web is brightly colored, and there are yellow bands at the front ends of the second to fourth segments of the ventral dorsal plate. Mild temperament, can keep quiet during spleen examination. Weak disease resistance, weak ability to resist bee mites. Strong insect rearing, weak bee distribution, strong nest cleaning ability and resistance to nest insects. Overwintering in a strong group will consume a lot of food. Strong ability to collect glue, good at strengthening the spleen, strong ability to secrete royal jelly, good at collecting and storing a lot of pollen.
3. Canila bees: similar in size and shape to Italian bees, with slender abdomen and webbed black. There are usually brown spots on the second and third sections of the ventral dorsal plate. A few individuals have reddish-brown stripes, dark chitin, short and dense fur, and gray hair on the body surface. The males have gray to grayish brown hair, and the length of the snout and beak is about 6.6 mm. Because of the intense division of bees, it is difficult to maintain a strong colony. Strong cold resistance, strong orientation, not easy to get lost in the nest, weak theft, less chewing gum collection. Mild temperament, not afraid of light during spleen examination, can keep quiet.
