Some  very good drawings of different races exist, drawn by Gezeichnet 
von M.  Wimmer, but I do not know of a source on the web. The pictures 
are  published in one of the 'hive and the honeybee' editions, I think 
the one  by Grout in 1946.



I have the 1949 revision of the 1946 book.  It contains an article on  Races 
of Bees by A.Z.Abushady in which he compares and contrasts what he calls  
Standard Bees (Carniolan, Caucasian and Italian) with Native Bees which he  clased 
as brown, Egyptian and Cyprian; however, there are no pictures.
