Observations of Honeybees on Chinese Gooseberries (‘Kiwifruit’) in New Zealand

Abstract

The authors were funded by the New Zealand Kiwifruit Authority to study honeybee dispersal in kiwifruit orchards. They also undertook other experiments, and made various observations of honeybees on kiwifruit which they wish to share with other avid ‘bee watchers’ some of whom may have observed these interesting phenomena.
