Total number of pollen, pollen recognition, fructose, glucose, sucrose and moisture were examined in 41 honey samples collected in Ayder Plateau in August 2012. Following the pollen recognition in the samples, 36 taxa were detected. Castanea sativa Miller. pollen was found in all samples in a dominant. The total number of pollen (TPN-10 g) in 10g honey varieted between 3438 and 87056. It has been determined that honey samples were normal and dominant pollen.
