The following table represents native honey bee species and subspecies of Ethiopia and Indonesia. While in Ethiopia, five** subspecies of A. mellifera, non-Apis species and the introduced A. florea are known, in Indonesia three subspecies of A. cerana, two of A. dorsata, the introduced A. mellifera, 5 other Apis species and non-Apis species are native.

Table: Apis species and non-Apis species used for bee products in Ethiopia and Indonesia are shown. + stands for species, occuring in the particular country, *+ describes introduced species. ** The literature is not consistent in defining A. m. bandasii as an own subspecies: part of the scientific literature claims that A. m. bandasii belongs to A. m. jemenitica.
