| Abstract | Since the discovery of the waggle dance by Nobel Laureate Karl von Frisch, honeybees have been recognised for their remarkable ability to communicate accurately the location and quality of food patches to one another. In Honeybee Democracy, Thomas Seeley explores another less well-known but equally remarkable facet of the communicative abilities of honeybees: collectively deciding where to establish a new nest. When a new queen is produced within the hive, half the colony leaves with the old queen to establish a new nest. |
