A feral population became established from this introduction, which then began to spread through Latin America. The northernmost advance (southern United States) is expected to occur between 1990 and 1997 (2).Several complications of bee stings, including renal involvement, have been reported, but in most cases the lesions are due to hypersensitivity to the bee venom after a single sting (3). Few reports...References1. KERR W. The history of the introduction of African bees to Brazil. S Afr Bee J. 1967;39:3-5. Google Scholar2. TAYLOR O.
