Abstract: In order to screen out the optimum hoeny bee for pear pollination, the pollinating behavior of nine species or subspecies were compared in Pyrus bretschneideri‘Dangshansuli’garden. The temperature of foraging and first returning with pollen, foraging capacity for pear pollen and proportion of pear pollen in all the pollen were researched. The results showed that the temperature when Apis cerana cerana began to forage was 8.2℃, which was lower than that of Apis mellifera (9.2-10℃). The temperature when Apis mellifera‘Kaqian Black Ring Bee’returned with pollen was 11℃, which was the lowest, and all the bees were able to return with pollen at the temperature of 11- 13.9℃. Apis mellifera‘Kaqian Black Ring Bee’and Apis mellifera carnica collected 7.3 and 8.1 g pollen respectively in an hour, and the proportion and the weight of pear pollen they collected were larger than that of others . So Apis mellifera‘Kaqian Black Ring Bee’ and Apis mellifera carnica were excellent for pear pollination with coldness adaptability and strong capacity.
