  • ... that among the tree's many uses, strips of bark from the West African copal are used to make beehives while the flowers are attractive to bees? Source: "Large strips of bark are made into beehives" (page 274) and "The flowers are much visited by honey-bees for nectar." (page 275)

  • The article is long enough, new enough, fully verified, and has no copyright violations. The hook is sourced. SL93 (talk) 21:10, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, but I think it's odd to use the word "appreciated" in relation to bees, both here and in the article. Also, you have so many uses listed in the article, why are you mentioning such an obvious one as bees visiting flowers? Yoninah (talk) 22:26, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
  • @Yoninah: I have changed the wording of article and hook. The hook is trying to integrate two uses of the tree that are both linked to bees. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:03, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
  • OK, thanks. Restoring tick per SL93's review. Yoninah (talk) 10:20, 18 August 2019 (UTC)
