Bees are in the Super Family Apoidea, which is then divided further into 9 families:

Apidae (honey bees and bumblebees belong in this family),

Colletidae

Megachilidae

Andrenidae

Halictidae

Mellitidae

Stenotritidae

Dasypodaidae

Meganomiidae

Not really.

Apoidea is a superfamily within the hymenoptera group which includes the sphecoid wasps (ampulicidae, crabronidae, heterogynaidae, and sphecidae) and bees (andrenidae, apidae, colletidae, dasypodaidae, halctidae, megachilidae, megonomiidae, melittidae, and stenotritidae).

Anthophila is an unranked taxonomic term which includes the bee group as above.

Scientific classification can be hard. Butterflies belong to six different family types. These 6 families are swallowtails, whites and sulphurs, metalmarks, brush-foots, gossamer-wings, and skippers.
