A first state record for South Carolina.  

This is the uncommon Melissodes manipularis.  

Its a male as you can tell by the very long antennae.  This bee was collected as part of a survey of coastal Spring Island by Merle Shepherd and compatriots.  There are but a handful of records for this species anywhere, it would be nice to look elsewhere in the coastal flatlands for this and other similar uncommon species.  

Do it.

BEES ARE THE ULTIMATE QUEENS OF THE COMBACK 🐝🐝🐝🐝

The Department  of Agriculture honeybee health survey released a report (August 2nd 2017) that proves honeybee colonies rose 3% compared to last year. Also the amount of bees that disappeared or died has gone down 27%. Bees, you’re doing amazing sweetie

Bees invented the bumbag. They have no arms, it makes sense.

Bee Fact #665

Like all insects, bees have green blood and no tear ducts, so they have to laugh and sneeze when they want to cry.

Bee Fact #664

Bees can suffer from alopecia (a medical condition involving severe hair loss). These unfortunate bees must coat themselves in honey and dust if they wish to collect pollen.

Bee Fact #663

Each bee has three lives: one past, one present, one future. Each cat has nine lives, and each cat year is the same at 7 human years. Logically then, each cat must swallow seven bees each year in order to stay alive.

If you look at honey under a powerful microscope, you will see your conscience looking back at you.

Bee Fact #661

Bees have no word for ‘loneliness’ . It’s not clear if this is because they have less social drive, or if there is less emotional expression in their culture(s).
