科學圖說

鞋斑無墊蜂體長約1.2公分,由於腹部有4-5條水青色的橫帶,因此俗稱青條花蜂。青條花蜂白天在花叢間快速地移動,訪花吸取花蜜,黃昏會集體在枝條上找床舖,並用其特化的大顎,緊緊咬住枝條或氣根,並把腳收起來睡覺。這些睡美人兒都是雄蜂,不會築巢,各處為家、雲遊四海。

Introduction

The Amegilla calceifera measures about 1.2 cm in length. There are 4-5 blue-green horizontal bands on the abdomen hence the common name: blue-banded bees. They collect nectar from flowers during the day and congregate on branches to rest at dusk. They use specialized mandibles to cling on to branches or aerial roots and retract their legs during sleep. As a matter of fact, these sleeping beauties are all males. They do not nest in a specific spot but wander in the field.
