An interesting note (thanks to Janet Brisson).
Honey bees were well established in New England by 1654.  They still didn't 
made it on their own to California during the ensuing 200 years, and had to 
be shipped in.  This was a rate of dispersal far slower than the AHB. 
Again, the geographical barriers surely played a part.
