Kangeroo Island
little john:
Has anybody here any experience of the Ligurians from Kangeroo Island - or any opinions worth sharing ?
Not asking for myself - as I'm a tad more than a bus ride away from K.I. - but a bloke from your neck of the woods was asking about them on BeeSource recently. Seems no-one there knows much about them - the BeeMaster forum search engine draws a blank too.

Hiya lj, there has been some discussion and some links recently about these, search kangaroo and it brings a few threads like;
https://beemaster.com/forum/index.php?topic=50914.msg447897#msg447897
I think that bottom line was that they weren't really a pure Ligurian strain.
little john:
Thanks mate !
Strewth, seems even I poked my oar in on that thread - and had then forgotten all about it. Touch of the Alzheimer's ? I'll send matey that link - cheers.

Dunno if the attached helps at all LJ as it is a demographic from an article
Omnimirage pointed me at in alluding Aussie bees owned Scutela genes.
I cannot locate that thread so maybe this 'mapping' kills two birds with
one stone, so to speak.
My opinion, mine only... is KI queens are more of a fashonista statement
than anything else. Claimed to have longer tongues than most I wonder
if the fact I can barely reach my nose with my tongue compared to
those who can lick their eyebrows actually inhibited puberty(parties) for
myself, or indeed I miss anything when licking the plate clean of spag (hetti)!
