Stingless Bees (Trinidad & Tobago)
In August 2022 the Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Network Trinidad and Tobago project (BES-Net TT) hosted a free workshop series in Trinidad on various aspects of pollinator management.

In this article, some specific aspects of the biology and habits of stingless bees that were shared in the series are highlighted.
