Popis: The creation of an automated system based on digital image processing of photographs of their wings to identify the genus and species of a bee (Apidae: Meliponini) is proposed. A fast and efficient system of taxonomic classification of stingless bees would be a very valuable contribution, as well as a reference for the study of stingless bees. The fore and hind right wings of workers were placed in an inert medium. The bee samples were collected directly from their nests and from the entomological collection of the Tropical Bee Research Center (CINAT).
