Description: The Foraging Behavior of the Honeybee (Apis mellifera L.) provides a scholarly resource for knowledge on the regulation communication resource allocation learning and characteristics of honeybee foraging behavior at the individual and colony level. Foraging in this context is the exploration of the environment around a honey bee hive and the collection of resources (pollen nectar water etc.) by bees in the worker caste of a colony. Honeybees have the unique ability to balance conflicting and changing resource needs in rapidly changing environments thus their characterization as superorganisms? made up of individuals who act in the interest of the whole. This book explores the fascinating world of honey bees in their struggle to obtain food and resources in the ecosystem and environment around the hive. Written by a team of international experts on honey bee behavior and ecology this book covers current and historical knowledge research methods and modeling used in the field of study and includes estimates of key parameters of energy utilization quantities of materials collected and identifies inconsistencies or gaps in current knowledge in the field.
