File:Apis mellifera flying.jpg to appear as POTD soon

Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Apis mellifera flying.jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on August 25, 2010. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2010-08-25. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! howcheng {chat} 00:06, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

A Western honey bee (Apis mellifera) carries pollen back to its hive in the pollen basket (the yellow area on its leg). A honey bee moistens the forelegs with a protruding tongue and brushes the pollen that has collected on head, body and forward appendages to the hind legs. In the hive, pollen is used as a protein source necessary during brood-rearing.Photo: Muhammad Mahdi Karim

German Pollenhöschen are pollen panties

Maybe in very rare instances it’d be worth mentioning that in German, with its yet non-existing article Pollenhöschen, the pollen baskets („Körbe“) are called „Höschen“ (IPA: /ˈhøːsçən/), which translates as panties or knickers. -- Gohnarch 19:56, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

question

This study [1] treats Corbiculate bees like a phylogenic category rather than a morphological one - would adding that information to the article about Euglossini being a sister group to the other three taxa be irrelevant since the article only treats the trait as a morphological characteristic? I wasn’t sure if I should -it it in or where to if I did. Feralcateater000 (talk) 17:29, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
