While social bees such as honey bees and bumble bees are familiar to most people, they comprise less than 10 percent of all bee species in the world.
The vast majority of bees lead solitary lives, surviving without the help of a hive and using their own resources to fend off danger and protect their offspring.
This book draws on new research to provide a comprehensive and authoritative overview of solitary bee biology, offering an unparalleled look at these remarkable insects.
