Apis dorsata

''Apis dorsata'', the giant honey bee, is a honey bee of South and Southeast Asia, found mainly in forested areas such as the Terai of Nepal and sometimes even in Malaysia and Singapore. They are typically around long in size. Nests are mainly built in exposed places far off the ground, like on tree limbs, under cliff overhangs, and sometimes on buildings. These social bees are known for their aggressive defense strategies and vicious behavior when disturbed. Indigenous peoples have traditionally used this species as a source of honey and beeswax, a practice known as honey hunting.
==Taxonomy and Phylogeny==
''Apis dorsata'' belongs to the family Apidae, which is in the class Insecta. This honeybee is most closely related to ''Apis mellifera'', (the Western honey bee) ''Apis Cerana'', and ''Apis Florea''. ''Apis dorsata'' belongs to the subgenus ''Megapis''. There are a few hypotheses as to when ''Apis dorsata'' diverged from both ''Apis florea'' and ''Apis cerana,'' as it is unclear which divergence occurred first. Currently, the consensus hypothesis provides a family tree that claims that ''Apis dorsata'' diverged from both ''Apis cerana'' and ''Apis florea'' at the same time.〔
