> Those species of honey bees that nest in tree cavities use propolis to
seal
cracks in the hive

Good catch, Juanse!  I need to correct that.  Of the two species of honey
bees that nest in cavities, only one--Apis mellifera--collects propolis.
As I understand it A. cerana doesn't.  Anyone with experience with A.
cerana please correct me if that is not the case!
