There are several bees all very social of the genus Apis, that produce honey. Especially A.mellifera, which is domesticated throughout the world as a source of honey and beeswax. They can be fairly aggressive especially when protecting their queen. The numbers of honey bees are on the decline for some mysterious reason. Can anyone help with info. on that?

The only members of the genus Apis are true honey bees. Honey bees collect pollen and nectar as food for the entire colony, and as they do, they pollinate plants. Nectar stored within their stomachs is passed from one worker to the next until the water within it diminishes. At this point, the nectar becomes honey, which workers store in the cells of the honeycomb.
