TaxonomyA subspecies of Apis mellifera (the western honey bee),[1] is the Cretan bee as classified by Ruttner 1975 and named by him after Brother Adam. The population on Crete has a similar genotype to Grecian populations, but Cretan bees are a more mixed population due to breeding and beekeeping practices (no pure populations on the island) (Harizanis & Odos).[2] BeekeepingWestern Cretan beehives are constructed of terracotta, wood and wicker. On the east of the island the hives are always ceramic.
