'''''Apis cerana cerana''''', also known as the '''Chinese honey bee''', is the [[nominotypical subspecies]] of the [[eastern honey bee]] (''Apis cerana''). It is commonly referred to as the native honey bee, Chinese honey bee, or simply {{lang|zh-Latn|Zhongfeng}} ({{lang|zh|中蜂}}) in China. This subspecies is an endemic honey bee [[genetic resource]] of [[China]]. In 2006, it was included in the [[The National List of Livestock and Poultry Genetic Resources for Conservation|National List of Livestock and Poultry Genetic Resources for Conservation]].中华人民共和国农业农村部. 中华人民共和国农业农村部公告 第940号. 2024. (in Chinese) The Chinese honey bee plays a key [[pollinator]] role in forest communities dominated by broad-leaved trees and in traditional [[agroecosystem]]s, and is of great value for maintaining mountain [[biodiversity]] and increasing agricultural production.{{cite web |author=科普中国 |date=2021-12-31 |title=中华蜜蜂 |url=https://www.kepuchina.cn/article/articleinfo?business_type=100&ar_id=343461 |publisher=科普中国 |access-date=2026-04-11 |language=zh}}
