An article on a genus such as " Bombus " should link back to the family Apidae and order Hymenoptera, and down to species articles where they exist.
12.
The bee genus " "'Anthophora " "'is one of the largest in the family Apidae, with over 450 species worldwide in 14 different subgenera.

While only a moderate percentage of species in bees ( families Apidae and Halictidae ) and wasps ( Crabronidae and Vespidae ) are eusocial, nearly all species of ants ( Formicidae ) are eusocial.
14.
Some allodapine bees ( Apidae ) form primitively eusocial colonies, with progressive provisioning : a larva's food is supplied gradually as it develops, as is the case in honey bees and some bumblebees.

Geographical patterns of genetic divergence in the widespread Mesoamerican bumble bee " Bombus ephippiatus " ( Hymenoptera : Apidae ) . " Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution ", 64, 219-231.
16.
It can be induced in Hymenoptera by the bacteria " Wolbachia " and " Cardinium ", and has also been described in several groups of Hymenoptera, including Cynipidae, Tenthredinidae, Aphelinidae, Ichneumonidae, Apidae and Formicidae.
17.
The trend to move groups down in taxonomic rank has been taken further by a 2005 Brazilian classification that places all existing bee families together under the name " Apidae ", but it has not been widely accepted in the literature since that time.
18.
In the honey bee ( Hymenoptera : Apidae : " Apis mellifera " ), the elongated and fused labial glossae form a hairy tongue, which is surrounded by the maxillary galeae and the labial palps to form a tubular proboscis containing a food canal.
19.
The head and the mesosoma are always black, although there may be orange or red colouration of labrum is longer than it is broad, which is an unusual characteristic in Apidae, and in " Sphecodopsis " specifically the labrum is also apically pointed.

""'Amegilla zonata " "', is a species of blue-banded bees belonging to the family Apidae, widely distributed in SE Asia, where it is often confused with the Australian species " Amegilla cingulata ".
