. The bee-keepers' guide; or, Manual of the apiary. Bees. Head of Drone, magnified. Antenna. Compound Eyes. Simple Eyes. Fig. Head of Worker, Magnified. Antenna*. Compound Eyes. Simple Eyes. tooth (Fig. 24, a, b), short tongues, and no pollen baskets, though they have the broad tibia and wide basal tarsus (Fig. 20, |>). There is some doubt as to the number of species of this genus. It is certain that the Apis Ligustica of Spinola, or Italian bee, the Apis fa^ciata of Latreille, or Egyptian bee, are only varieties of the Apis mellifica, which also includes the German or black bee. Mr. F. Smith, an able entomologist, considers Apis dorsata of India and the East Indies, Apis zonata of the same islands, Apis Indica of India and China, and Apis florea of India,.
