The present study documents a preliminary checklist of bee diversity from Arunachal Pradesh, India based on literature study and the surveys undertaken during October, 2016 to July, 2017. Altogether, 49 species have been recorded belonging to 12 genera under 03 families viz. Apidae, Halictidae, and Megachilidae. Family Megachilidae, Genus Ceratina and 13 species of bees are recorded first time from Arunachal Pradesh.Keywords

Lippia alba, an introduced species of Lippia has widely been used in traditional and folk medicine. Being incompatible with self-pollination, these plants rely on pollinators, particularly bees, for reproduction. In this study, floral association of the bee pollinators/visitors belonging to four families of Apoidea with L. alba has been examinedKeywords
