Honey Bees on Cocaine 'Dance' When Food Is Found

Huh, who would have thought they'd take the Hive so seriously? :)

Anyway
What was the name of the chemical in their brains that causes the dance....sounded like serotonin.

Pretty sure it's octopamine, a neurotransmitter similar to dopamine in non-mammals (Not sure if DA is found in fish or birds, probably, I assume only low order critters use octopamine.
