Description
Orchid bees are brightly-coloured insects exclusively found in the Neotropics, from Mexico to the North of Argentina. They are classified in the Euglossini tribe of the Apidae family , which includes all bees. Unlike other members of their family, such as the honey bee, orchid bees are mostly solitary. However, some species do build their nests near other individuals of their species, forming small communities. They use a variety of materials for nest building, including plant resin, mud, bark, leaves and even faeces.
