The number of stripes on a bee can vary depending on the species. For example, honeybees typically have three to five distinct bands or stripes on their abdomen, while bumblebees may have more varied patterns and colors. Some solitary bees may have fewer or even no visible stripes at all. Overall, the presence and number of stripes can be a useful characteristic for identifying different bee species.
