Apes nectar in mel convertunt ratione vomendi, et hunc vomitum conservant pro cibo principali in favis cereis intra alvearia. Rationes apiculturae immoderatum mellis opus excitant ut nimium ex colonia conligi potest.
Mel ab insectis meliponinis confectum, aut silvaticarum aut ab hominibus conservatarum, "mel meliponinorum" appellari licet. Proprietates valde dissimiles habet.
