A small stingless bee is found in the
state of Sinaloa and in Topic. The
money of these bees is not great in
quantity, is dark colored, very liquid
and is SAID not to crystalize. Another
peculiarity-o of the honey is that it has
a decidedly sour or tart taste and on.
this account it is much sought after as
being greater delicacy than the
tame bee. The reason these bees are
small producers is that, as they are
constantly robbed by the larger va
rietes, the tame bee being one of the
robbers.
