Hi to all on Bee-L

Reply:
This is very good information to know Peter about the dark
bee of Europe. Is this also true with other dark bee races
of Europe and Elsewhere (Africa) i.e. Punic, Monticola,
Cape Bee even?

How does this relate to yellow race/strain types also, i.e.
Italian, cyprian, Egyptian, and Scuts?
