Here is a disease which I see in occasional cells here and there in some years, including this one, but never at this level. I'll leave it unnamed for now as a teaser. The second picture shows that the dead larvae still have their skins intact and can be lifted out in one piece.
What should I do now? This one had been to be going to a heather apiary shared with the bees from the apiary where this one came from a few years ago. There are a few frames in this state but the newer brood to the side looks quite good.
