Bees are an integral part of the world's biodiversity. They are responsible for 40 to 90% of the pollination of the native Brazilian tropical flora, according to the ecosystem of which they are part (KERR et al., 1996). There are about 20,000 different species of bees on the planet, varying in size, shape and life habits (VELTHUIS, 1997j _. \ Among all, stingless bees together with melifers reach the highest degree of social evolution (KERR, 1972; VELTHUIS, 1997). Among social bees, meliponines or stingless bees form an important group, rich in species and behavioral variations (VELTHUIS, 1997), in addition to being a very isolated and specialized run group. Their isolation and specialization seems to be largely due to peculiarities of the...
