A Bibliography of Honey Bee Toxicology

Abstract

Interest in honey bee toxicology has recently received a fresh impetus as a result of the development of many new insecticides and the more general appreciation of the honey bee as an important pollinator. In particular, for seed setting in many legumes the honey bee appears to be essential. This bibliography is therefore presented at this time to serve as a guide to the literature. The extent of the literature is considerable: the bibliography is extensive, but it would be unwise to claim that it is complete. It contains references up to the fall of 1949.
