About Bees
Bees are winged insects closely related to wasps and ants, known for their roles in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the western honey bee, for producing honey. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea. They are currently considered a clade, called Anthophila.

A bee C: scientists translate honey bee Queen duets
scientists using high-sensitive vibration-detectors decrypted have honeybee Queens "tooting and quacks" duets in The Hive .
worker Bees and new Queens by sealing the eggs in special cells with wax and feeding of Royal jelly.
The Queens quack, if you are ready for it, But if two are free at the same Time , They will fight to the death.
So, if you hold the hatches, its quack contact toots, tells the workers, the other - Still quacks, Captive .
.
Dr. Martin Bencsik from Nottingham Trent University , who led the study, described the tooting and quacks, of this "wonderful animals", as "extraordinary".
"the king is listening to the inside of the reaction on each other," He Said .
"It has been assumed that The Queens were talking with the other Queens , perhaps sizing each other up vocally, who is the strongest.
"But we now have evidence for The Alternative explanation. "
Tooting, the researchers found, is to move a Queen to The Colony , announcing their presence to the employee.
The croaking is coming from Queens that are ready, But are Still trapped in their cells.
The ladies are Not Talking to each other, explains Dr. Bencsik, "it's the communication between The Queen and The Worker Bees , the entire company of tens of thousands of Bees , the try free, to The Queen at a Time .
All the honey bee's decisions are collective, including the decision, a new Queen"Quacking Queens specifically held Captive by The Worker Bees - They are not free of quacks, Queens , because you can hear the tooting.
"When the tooting stops, it means that The Queen swarmed would have [to find a split of The Colony and a new nest], and this triggers The Colony to release a new Queen . "
Dr Bencsik said bee company was to observe "very famos".
"All of the decisions in the group's decisions," He Said .
"It's The Worker Bees , the decision, whether you are a new Queen or not. "
With honey Bees in danger of extinction, beekeepers and bee-hives, which They offer, are crucial for their survival. The researchers hope that their eavesdropping exercise will help beekeepers avoid swarming of this delicate collective decision-making and predict when their own colonies might be.
