| Description: Cleptoparasitic Bee The mature bee larva pictured above is from a species that attacks the larvae of other bee species, removes them from the nest, and takes their place to be raised by the unknowing host mother. This behavior is known as cleptoparasitism. The species pictured here, known as Stelis ater, was almost entirely unknown before a study was published Picture Stats: Views: 909 Filesize: 92.96kB Height: 492 Width: 660 Source: https://biology-forums.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=9251 Keywords: Cleptoparasitic Bee |
