> 'Punic bees' was a name used by John Hewitt, who imported Tunisian queens
to the UK around 1892. Given that the name recurs, this is probably the
ultimate  source of the bees which were used elsewhere.
 
Given the Punic bees came to Australia in 1892 from America, they must have
been in America before 1892.
