I have a question for the entomologists...
 
In the Earth Almanac department of the April, 1996 National
Geographic, there is a blurb about bees in Japan that use heat defense
against giant hornats. I've also read of these bees in other bee
literature
 
My question is...
 
Are these bees a race of Apis millifera or a member of one of the
other four species of honey bee?
 
I can't find any clues in the Hive And The Honey Bee.
From the picture in the article, they sure look like honey bees.
