Apis mellifera capensis

Apis mellifera capensis, the Cape honey bee is a sub-species of the Western honey bee. Cape worker bees are able to lay diploid, female eggs without mating by means of thelytoky, whereas workers of other honey bee subspecies are able to lay only haploid, male eggs.

They will often use this ability to set themselves up as a false queen of a rival colony.
