~normal honey bee development
~parasites
~diseases and disease like conditions
~pests
~africanized honey bees
A Field Guide To Honey Bees And Their Maladies (http://pubs.cas.psu.edu/FreePubs/PDFs/AGRS116.pdf)

That is the one I was looking for RB, could not seem to put my fingers on it.

for some reason my computer will not read (I assume translate) the download.

well thanks for the compliment tecumseh, i wish you a good day as well....... :D
as far the download of the file, operator error perhaps? :D you have two options, either download/save to your pc the attachment, or open the link below it in your browser. you must have a pdf reader installed like adobe or fox-it reader. both links are working, so am not sure why you couldn't open or save the file?

In the link it is inserting 2 http//http so it is showing as an error. try this

i have repaired the link in my original post, so it is now working!!!

I purchased a copy of the book. It's great. I keep it in my tool bucket so I have it when I go check the hives.
-
Dandy book to take to the hives, plenty of good clear pics for comparing and good details of what to look for.

We use that Penn State Field Guide in our local bee class. Each person gets a copy. The quality of the pictures is excellent. The descriptions include information I have not found any other place. For a beginner, a guide like this can be a life saver. :)
-
My copy of arriving in the mail any day now, real easy to order the book from Penn State :)

jen, this is an excellent print field guide as lee said also, and you will really like it. ;)
