Ethiopia: The most important melliferous plants are well documented. Fichtl & Adi (1994) described over 500 species of melliferous plants in Ethiopia (400 herbs/shrubs and 100 trees). [1] Another important book by Admasu et al. (2014) describes nearly 400 important species. [2] Abera (2017) also describes important plants focussing on the south-eastern region of Ethiopia. [3] Nevertheless, a floral calendar covering all regions in Ethiopia does not exist!
Indonesia: So far, there is no literature available on important melliferous plants in Indonesia, but there is a study by Jasmi (2017) which describes important melliferous plants for A. cerana in polyculture plantation. [4]
