There are so many bees on this earth, this is one of the bees found in the area of the island of Sumatra, Aceh, Indonesia. Some bees are generally well-known and recognized by many people. Then what about the Thyreus bee, because I think many people do not think that this insect is also a family of bees.

This is a cuckoo bee or in scientific name known as Thyreus This bee has a habit of perching on dry twigs. Thyreus is also known for its uniqueness, one of which is standing with its teeth on a twig. As a bee, Thyreus is very different from many bees in general. The second is that this bee also has a habit of gnawing.

Perfect shot of one of the types of cuckoo bees that you captured, I was very interested in this insect you found, how cool my friend😍

Unfortunately, he has now migrated to who knows where. He used to live on a branch next to the house almost every day.
