[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Jataí Bee(Tetragonisca angustula) are not provided with stings. This is the entrance of their hive where I could see a numerous black ants stucked and dead. Searching for information I found that they produce a kind of wax for that use.

For protection they roll on people`s hair, try to reach nose and ears and they bite with the cutting mandible.
