Nope. Not wrong. It is absolutely true that I like it.  I don't use it, of course. 

I don't use honeybee, either, though Seeley does. 

In Google Scholar, "honeybee" gets 140,000 hits while "honey bee" gets 289,000. 

For best results use: "honeybee" OR "honey bee" -- that brings up 325,000 citations. I have read them all, too.
