?About bee:
Apis andreniformis, or the black dwarf honey bee, is a relatively rare species of honey bee whose native habitat is the tropical and subtropical regions of Southeast Asia.

A. andreniformis can be distinguished from other Apis species by noting their dark black coloration, making them the darkest of their genus. Originally, it was thought that A. andreniformis was a part of the species A. florea, but recent studies have noted morphological differences that have separated the two. Some distinctions include: structural differences in the endophalli, a larger wing venation in A. andreniformis, and a longer basitarsal extension in A. florea. Additionally, there are slight color variations between the two species. In typical A. andreniformis, its first two abdominal segments are black and its scutellum is reddish brown, while in A. florea, the first two abdominal segments are reddish brown and their scutellum is black, though there is some variation that makes color unreliable.[5] Another distinguishing factor is the presence of black hairs on the tibia of A. andreniformis, which are white in A. florea.

Other differentiating characteristics include cubital indexes and proboscis length. A. andreniformis has an index of 6.37, while A. florea has one of 2.86. The proboscis of A. andreniformis has a length of 2.80 mm, while that of A. florea is 3.27 mm.
