Apis mellifera, commonly known as the honey bee, produces honey, a sweet substance made from nectar collected from flowers. The bees convert the nectar into honey through a process of regurgitation and evaporation, which helps preserve it. Honey serves as a vital food source for the bees, especially during winter months when flowers are not blooming. It is also valued by humans for its flavor and potential health benefits.

Research has shown that the highest production figures come from a bee that is a cross between the European honey bee (apis mellifera mellifera) and the African honey bee (apis mellifera scutella). However that cross produces what has become known as the 'killer' bee, because they are less docile and more likely to sting. On balance, this disadvantage outweighs any production advantage so beekeepers tend to use the pure European honey bee.

The European honey bee is classified as Apis mellifera. It's native to Europe. But it was successfully transported, and naturalized, to the United States of America by European colonists. It's an example of an exotic, or non-native, species that came to be appreciated, instead of dreaded and scorned, by the inhabitants of the new land.

Africanized bees do not have their own genus name because they are, by definition, hybrids. They are the result of crossing Tanzanian bees, apis mellifera scutella, with various European bees, such as apis mellifera lingustica, apis mellifera iberiensis and apis mellifera mellifera.
