Hi Murray,
Some latitude linked factors, possibly including seasonality, is at play
causing these bees not to prosper much outside latitude 35 N or S. I dont
pretend to know what it is, but it could serve as a warning to those who
would buy such bees and take them outside this range as to the potential
problems which could be encountered.
reply:
Wouldn't you say this could be true with EHB's? Or in other words why don't
the bees of Europe move down into africa?
