Types of bees

There are nearly 20,000 types of bees in the world and this all comes down to the way they make there hives, where they come from all over the world, also by there physical apperance and the way they work socialy.



They can also be broken down to 13 seperate different (and very broad) groups.

These are Bumblebees, Honeybees, Carpanter bees, Ground bees, Parasitic bees, Digger bees, Leafcutter and Mason bees, Sweet bees, cellophane bees, Plasterer bees, Cardar bees, Orchid bees and Africanized Honeybees.

These are the main groups of bees but these can be briken down into more categories and a lot more centrilized then these groups but these are the main ones based on how they look and where they come from.

Eusocial and semisocial bees

Bees live in many different ways they ether living side by side are by themself as a whole.

Sometimes female bees live together and when there is a split in the work force this is a semisocial colonie.
This behaviour can also be in the history of humans.
When two powers would fight for control of a country againest each other.
An example of this is the American Civil-War.

The most advanced way of living is what they call Eusocial colonies.
Eusocial is where the mother is the queen and the sisters are the workers.
This can also be seen in human histroy.
In Medival England the Royal Family would rule over the whole country as a monarchy.
The were lead by ether the King or the Queen.

This shows that even though we are in many ways different from bees we still live in the many ways we are simaliar.
Espicaly in the way we live by interacting with others and surviving as a group rather then individuals.
