I was not only surprised at the number of bees visiting this Catasetum orchid, but also by the kind of bee. This one is different than the big black bee (
mangangá) on which I reported a few days ago. I would assume that these bees are also classified as orchid bees, but I'm not sure. I never saw more than two
mangangá bees at a time. As you can see from the image, there are at least half a dozen here.
