There are 4 types of honeybee species found in India being: Apis dorsata (The Giant Rock Bee), Apis florea (The Dwarf Honey Bee), Apis cerana (The Asiatic Honey Bee), and a Trigona species called the Dammer bee. Their distribution is found across India, throughout Asia, and the Trigona spp. are found across the equatorial region of the entire world. Apis cerana The Asiatic Honey Bee has its namesake for a reason – it is spread throughout much of Asia.
On the 20th of June, Keystone Foundation launched the website http://honeyportal.keystone-foundation.org. The idea behind this venture is to be able to gather and share knowledge on honey, honey bees and their connection to the indigenous communities across India whose history, life, culture & traditions are related to it.
This was achieved with the help of Audra Bass, a fellow from the American Indian Foundation(AIF), who gathered inputs and ideas from different people and sources, that where consolidated to make this website possible.
