Bartonella apis is a bacterium from the genus Bartonella. Bartonella apis was first isolated from the gut of the honey bee (Apis mellifera) in 2015 by Swiss researchers at the University of Lausanne.[3][4] To date, it has been found only as a gut symbiont of honey bees, including the Western honey bee (Apis mellifera), and the Eastern or Asiatic honey bee (Apis cerana).
