vulture bee

noun

Definitions

  1. Any of various bee species in the genus Trigona that feed on carrion.

    • It is a flesh-eating bee. Actually, we joke – we call it the vulture bee. And it does have cusps on its mandibles, it has no little tool kit, no curriculum or pollen basket to carry pollen back to the nest. It has no need for that.
