Bee Biology

This guide produced by the CRAAQ invites you to discover the honeybee or to deepen your knowledge of this social insect which plays a vital role in agriculture.

Lavishly illustrated, the book describes the morphology, digestive, circulatory, respiratory, reproductive and nervous systems, the sense organs (vision, smell, taste, touch) and the life cycle of the bee. It also focuses on the activities of worker bees (comb construction, cleaning, feeding larvae, colony defense, foraging), the language of bees and the contribution of pheromones to the proper functioning of the colony.

A complete and concise reference work, to consult to fully understand the honeybee and its behavior!
