Fig. 3

A flow chart of the colony splitting event in SIMplyBee. The split() function returns an R list with two colonies, split and remnant, where the split is non-productive and the remnant is productive. Parameter p represents the proportion of workers that are removed in a split. After the split, the user can cross() the virgin queen of the remnant colony, or use an already mated queen from another source using reQueen(), which mimics the beekeepers’ options. Refer to the key in Fig. 1
