- It builds one exposed comb, usually on a branch or shrub.1
Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: Apis andreniformis, its sister species, is generally darker. In old bees, the first abdomen segment is completely black, while in this species it is red.1
Amandla etyhefu yokuluma nokuhlaba
Ityhefu iphuma ngenaliti yokuhlaba.
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: KuthambileNjengokuhlatywa yinyosi okanye ngaphantsi. Phantse asinangozi ebantwini.Senza ntoni xa soyika?
When it senses predators, it hisses, shimmers and nests in dense foliage to hide, and it can produce a sticky barrier to block raiding ants.1
Ukuba siyahlaba
- Krwela inaliti yenyosi uyikhuphe uze upholise indawo.
- Ukuba umntu uphefumla kanzima, ubuso okanye umqala wakhe uyadumba, okanye uziva ngathi uza kufa isiqaqa, yimeko kaxakeka ye-aleji: tsalela inombolo kaxakeka kwaye usebenzise ipeni yakhe ye-adrenaline ukuba unayo.
Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala
Hlala ukhuselekile
- Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
- Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Ukuba siyakuhlaba: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.
Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Zizibalo nje kwibhrawuza yakho. Akukho nto igcinwayo okanye ithunyelwa naphi na.

Iinyaniso
A colony defends itself with a warning call called piping, which is answered by a loud, coordinated hissing from the whole colony.1
It recycles wax from an old nest when it builds a new one close by, a behaviour other honey bees do not show.1
Its waggle dance is performed on the horizontal top of the comb, where the comb wraps around the branch, not on a vertical face as in many other honey bees.1
A colony was recorded in Malta in 2024, the first fully established colony ever found in Europe.1
Its main natural enemy is the O. smaragdina weaver ant.1
