type: CreativeWork
description: The dissertation is concluded with a biological catalog of the Indo-Malayan/Australasian stingless bees including 519 literature references, and deals with 129 proposed names for species-group taxa, of which 89 are considered currently valid. Information is summarized on organisms associated with stingless bee colonies as well as the 225 plants from which the bees have been reported to forage.
