idetification of pollinator

    1 responses

Gg2 starts with ...
Could you please identify the bees that are pollinating my star fruit flowers presently.?
The bee is slightly smaller than the European honey bee and is shinny black on the head thorax and abdomen upper surfaces.The abdomen is furry and orange in colour on the underside. The wings and legs are black in colour. The bees move rapidly from flower to flower.
They move too rapidly for me to get a good image to send to you.
