Field Notes
Description:
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in males and 12 in females, as is typical for the superfamily. Bees all have two pairs of wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two.
Habitat:
Bees are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.
