Annie Dorothy Betts (1884 – 8 September 1961) was a British apiculturist, bee disease expert, author and editor. She made scientifically significant observations on honeybees, wrote books on apiculture, and edited the journal Bee World.

Life

Betts was first published in 1912 when she wrote an article on the fungi Pericytis alvei. She was the first to describe that species.[1] In 1972 P. alvei was given a new combination and included in the newly described genus Bettsia.[2] This genus was named in her honour.[2]

During the First World War Betts worked as an aeronautical engineer.[3]

She was a member of the Apis Club and was the editor of its journal Bee World from 1929 to 1949.[4] Betts was also a prolific contributor to that journal and published over 170 articles on various subjects relating to honeybees within its pages.[1] After ensuring the continued success of Bee World during two world wars, Betts retired as editor in 1949.[5] She left the journal in a sound financial position.[5] Betts died in 1961.[6]
