Where are the stingless native bees found in Australia?
The stingless social native bees that produce honey are tropical bees. They are only found in warm areas such as the northern half of Western Australia, the Northern Territory, Queensland, and northern and coastal areas of NSW. In marginal areas such as south coast of NSW they survive much better in a natural log than in a box because the log provides much better insulation. They are unlikely to survive without special artificial support if taken to areas outside of their natural range. Click here for more details.
