It looks like you measured
one of mine :>)
I measured thorax width rather
than length for no particular reason
why
Wouldn't it be interesting
if lots of people from around the would
measure a couple of bees and post the results. A time could be
set,
something that's easy to remember. The measurements could be
catagorized by season, type of bee, foundation cell size, etc.
What do you think? The scope
would be much wider than one guy making
300 measurements a month.

Dennis
Am I getting lazy or what? :>)
I'm going to cross post this message
