The discovery of a 100-million-year old bee embedded in amber -- perhaps the oldest bee ever found -- "pushes the bee fossil record back about 35 million years," according to Bryan Danforth, Cornell ...

When people think of honey bees, they often think of classic wooden hives, in which beekeepers are having to breed more and more bees just to keep managed populations stable. These man-made boxes, ...

Newswise — A new theory has been presented by scientists regarding the development of advanced brain functions and behaviors in insects of the Hymenoptera order. By comparing the Kenyon cells, a ...
