Crop (anatomy) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Crop (anatomy)
A crop (sometimes also called a croup or a craw, or ingluvies) is a thin-walled expanded portion of the alimentary tract used for the storage of food prior to digestion. This anatomical structure is found in a wide variety of animals. It has been found in birds, some non-avian dinosaurs, and in invertebrate animals including gastropods (snails and slugs), earthworms,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://yucky.discovery.com/flash/worm/pg000102.html )〕 leeches, and insects. == Bees ==
Cropping is used by bees to temporarily store nectar of flowers. When bees "suck" nectar, it is stored in their crops.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url=http://plantphys.info/plants_human/bees/bees.shtml )〕
