Hotel à abeilles solitaires - Bees motel

Il existerait 865 espèces d'abeilles en France. Il y a des abeilles qui ont une vie sociale avec reine et ouvrières. Mais la plupart des abeilles sont solitaires (telle l'Osmie, la Xylocope violacée etc . . . ) Chaque femelle construit son propre nid avec une dizaine de cellules d'élevage : elle garnit chaque cellule de nourriture pour les jeunes, y pond un oeuf puis meurt avant l'apparition de la génération suivante. Ces abeilles solitaires peuvent être nombreuses à gîter dans un même lieu (comme ici dans cet espace construit pour elles) sans avoir de communication entre elles. Toutes les abeilles jouent un rôle important dans la pollinisation des plantes sauvages et cultivées, c'est pourquoi il est important de leurs laisser des espaces de reproduction.

Rare picture of a Blue Banded Bees (Amegilla) approaching a flower of Salvia chamaedryoides (indigo Blue). The speed and unpredictable movement on the bees make it really hard to catch them in mid flight. These bees (mostly 8-13 mm long), with glittering stripes of blue or whitish hair across their black abdomens.The females build nests in shallow burrows in the ground but they may also nest in mudbrick houses or in soft mortar.

Portrait of a honey bee

Honey bees (or honeybees) are a subset of bees in the genus Apis, primarily distinguished by the production and storage of honey and the construction of perennial, colonial nests out of wax. Honey bees are the only extant members of the tribe Apini, all in the genus Apis. Currently, there are only seven recognised species of honey bee with a total of 44 subspecies, though historically, anywhere from six to eleven species have been recognised. Honey bees represent only a small fraction of the approximately 20,000 known species of bees. Some other types of related bees produce and store honey, but only members of the genus Apis are true honey bees.
