Pollen is temporarily stored in pollen basket s For bee s, their forage or food supply consists of nectar and pollen from flower blooming plant s within flight range. The forage sources for Western honeybeehoneybee s are an important consideration for beekeeper s. In order to determine where to locate hives for maximum honey production and brood honeybee brood one must consider the off season. If there are no honey flows the bees may have to be fed. Bees that are used for pollination are usually fed in the holding yards. Forage is also significant for pollination management with other bee species. Nectar contains sugar s that are the primary source of energy for the bees wing muscle s and for heat for honeybee colonies for winter. Pollen provides the protein and trace mineral s that are mostly fed to the brood in order to replace bees lost in the normal course of life cycle and colony activity. As a rule of thumb the foraging area around a beehive beekeeping beehive extends for two miles 3  km , although bees have been observed foraging twice and three times this distance from the hive.

refimprove date March 2011 Honeybee race is a classifications of honey bees , in particular European dark bee s Apis mellifera mellifera into various named instances of an informal taxonomic rank of Race biology race , below that of subspecies , on the basis of shared genetic traits . Pure representatives of any race are becoming ever rarer because humans have imported favored subspecies to regions that previously had distinctive type s of their own, and the imported bees have interbred with the native bees. The best chance to find representatives of any subspecies is in the center or the most protected part of the subspecies native area. In the Americas, there has been a great deal of mixing of subspecies and European dark bee races of the Europeanhoneybee A. mellifera more generally, since all American honey bees have been imported at some point after 1492.

It originates from Malta where it is native. Origin The bee is a sub species of the Western honeybee that has naturalized and adapted to the environment of the Maltese Islands . It evolved as a different sub species when the Maltese islands were cut off from mainland Europe . Character and behavior The bee is of relatively black colour. It is well adapted for high temperatures and dry summers and cool winters. Colonies have brood all year round and with good response to the seasons on the islands. They clean the hive well. They tend to swarm or supersede the queen when there are enough stores generally swarms in Spring and supersedes in Autumn . A very defensive species against wasps, mice and beetles and can be very aggressive against beekeepers and trespassing people. Colonies also have some resistance to Varroa destructor Varroa . ref http barnsleybeekeepers.org.uk bee types.html ref History of species The species is considered as making a comeback after Varroa was introduced to Malta in 1992. At that time colonies of bees from abroad were imported to compensate for the loss of native colonies. In 1997 the species was identified as a sub species. It breeds well with the Italian sub species making a strain that defends well against Varroa and has good honey yield, while less aggressive, although this is somewhat endangering the Maltese sub species as a genetically distinct entity and after some generations it ends up ... more details
