" Bayer termed it Apis—the Bee, a name by which it was known for the next two centuries."
Technically, Bayer called Apus "Apis Indica"; Musca he instead called "Apes". Have a look at File:BayerUran1661apuschamtri.jpg. Bayer has lots of unique spelling. This is almost right, but not quite. Perhaps a footnote explaining Bayer's spelling? Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:51, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Hang on, looking up close at the image it says Apis for Musca...where are you seeing Apes?.Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 13:53, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

 * This is a bit late to the party, but if it's any help, Apes is an older name for Musca Borealis, the other Fly. Regards, Moonraker12 (talk) 22:02, 23 December 2017 (UTC)
