Historical_introductions_of_western_honey_bees,_Apis_mellifera,_into_the_United_States.svg


Summary

Description
English: The visualization shows the historical introductions of western honey bees, Apis mellifera, into the United States. In particular, the visualization takes into account four categories of data. The first is the country from which the bees were exported (on the left side of the diagram), then the state into which the bees were imported (on the right side of the diagram), the year in which the shipment took place (represented with a black dot aligned to the relative year on the bottom), and the subspecies of Apis mellifera shipped (represented with the respective color in the legend).

A legend included in the visualization helps understand the meaning of the graphic elements.
