        You might be interested in this book for your list as well.  It is
one of the few books on the market that deals with the pollen types found in
honey...  I have attached a brief summary of the book's contents.
 
 
        NEW POLLEN ATLAS JUST RELEASED
 
POLLEN OF THE SOUTHEASTERN UNITED STATES: WITH EMPHASIS ON MELISSOPALYNOLOGY
AND ENTOMOPALYNOLOGY (released in July, 1995; $27.00)
        by  G. Jones, V. Bryant, M. Lieux, S. Jones, & P. Lingren
 
        The hardback edition of this  pollen atlas of  Southeastern U.S. flora is
finally available for sale.  It contains nearly 100 pages of text and
indices as well as over 100 full-page plates.  In total there are nearly
1,000 individual SEM photographs of 400 different vouchered pollen taxa
found in flora of the Southeastern United States.  In addition to a text
portion, and plates, the book contains five separate indices that make
finding the picture of any pollen grain easy.  All of the SEM photographs
are indexed according to their plant family, according to the plant's genus,
by aperturation type, by ornamentation classification, and by individual
photograph number.   It is a remarkable publication for the price!
        Although this pollen atlas would be useful for any type of pollen research,
it is especially useful for those individuals working with pollen-feeding
insects and with the honey production of bees.  Almost all of the pollen
taxa represented in this book come from confirmed identifications of pollen
taxa known to be used by bees in the production of honey, or pollen used as
food by other types of pollen-eating insects.
        Copies may be ordered by email, by letter, by FAX, or by telephone from the
American Association of Stratigraphic Palynologists.   You may pay by VISA,
Master Card, cash, or by check.  If your order is accompanied by payment,
AASP will send you the book free of additional postage and handling charges.
