Chris:
Depending upon who you talk to. But yes, I would say about
50% Italian and other part about 50% caucasian similar as
per analysis done by Koeniger, USDA, Univ Ariz, and others
over the years. The flats are more Italian below 3,000 feet
and then going above and more so over 3500 feet it really
goes progressively darker. But then too in looking those
saying Italian could also be caucasian as caucasian yellow
do look extremely similar to Italian. Further, have never
seen any difference with our bees and their behaviour in
all the years FWIW...

Regards,

Dee
