Apis florea or the Red dwarf bee rarely stings and produces about 1 kg of honey per colony per year.
Apis indica or Indian bee can be easily domesticated and is most commonly used for honey production. The annual yield of honey from this species is 2 to 5 kg per colony year.
Apis dorsata, also known as Rock bee is a giant bee and yields about 37 kg of honey per colony.
Apis mellifera is the most widely used species of bee across the world and is the most commercially viable species for honey production. It has a very typical dance routine to indicate food availability.
