Abstract

The microscopical analysis of the pollen loads collected by Apis mellifera during the pollen harvesting has shown 22 pollen types The familys Cistaceae, Fabaceae and Rutaceae are the main pollen sources in the studied zone. Data on flowing fenology, frecuency and floral resources have been relationed with the pollen analysis.
