Nosema ceranae and N. apis are microsporidian parasitoids of the European honey bee Apis mellifera L. A study to estimate infection levels with Nosema sp. in local bees and their spatial distribution in Algeria was carried out in 2013. Bees' samples were collected from A. mellifera intermessa in 10 apiaries at 24 prefectures, representing different hives or areas in Algeria. Using spore counts, 65% and 85% of hives were found infected with Nosema sp. in Algeria. Setif and Tipaza were characterized by the highest levels of infection. Insignificant differences were found in infection levels among 164 hives and different areas. This study provides the first spatial distribution for the presence of Nosema sp. in Algeria.
