Abstract

The honey bee language is considered by many to be one of the most interesting systems for animal communications, used for recruitment to food sources. Honeybee's forager dancers communicate food and other resources to the household by quantity, consistency, direction, and spatial location. The waggle dance was interesting and complex, which bees used for spatial information on desired resources. All honeybee species use the waggle dance to convey their position and distance from food sources and possible new nest sites. The research was carried out on dance communication, earlier ideas, controversies, and solutions gave a broad overview. In this analysis, unique problems are focused on as follows: (a) multiple dance forms. (b) Distance and path calculation (c) How bees do dark hive dance.? Several experiments verified that bees perform various kinds of dance, depending on their particular task. There is, however, still a lack of comprehensive knowledge on other types of dances, which help us solve numerous questions and help us better understand the meaning of the different kinds of dances carried in and outside the hive by honeybees.

Highlights

  • Bees dance to tell their nestmates about the positions of useful resources, and dances effectively recruit new foragers (Wray, 2012)

  • The dance, which is carried on by a honey bee when a good food source has returned to its colony, provides information about its presence, odor, consistency, direction, and distance from this food source, which permits nesting companions to take advantage of it (Riley et al, 2005;Grüter and Ratnieks, 2011)

  • The direction information is transmitted via the waggle run orientation, while distance data is conveyed during the waggle run for details see (Von Frisch et al, 1967; Riley et al ., 2005; Preece and Beekman, 2014)

Summary

Introduction

Bees dance to tell their nestmates about the positions of useful resources, and dances effectively recruit new foragers (Wray, 2012). Mechanisms by which bees can encrypt a food source's distance and direction (Duangphakdee et al, 2011). The honey bee dance is one of the most advanced social contact methods in animals, enables nests to look for food and communicates a symbolic source of information (George et al ., 2020).
