I am looking for a guide, preferably a modern one, to the different
species, sub-species and varieties of honey bees. It would be handy to
have a chart, or a quick reference guide, that connects common names to
scientific names and gives a brief description of distinguishing
characteristics and maybe places of origin. You know, like a field guid to
the honey bees of the world. Because, frankly I sometimes have a hard time
keeping track of the relationships between all the different bees that are
being discussed and compared here. Surely such a thing exists. Would
someone let me/us know where to get a hold of something like that?
