Identity and region
Hisayasu Suzuki — Japan
Crystal Red pioneering breeder, historically associated with selecting red Bee individuals.
Verified history and reported achievements
Garnelenhaus attributes Crystal Red selection to Suzuki and notes possible earlier red-bee examples; no universal founder pedigree is established.
Award-status caveat: No independently verified award count in this batch.
Breeding techniques and disclosure limits
Isolate spontaneous red bee phenotype and breed selected red offspring over generations, as reported historically.
Competition categories, advertisements and personal sites do not expose a complete strain-by-strain genetic family tree. Original line labels, breeding logs and specimen-specific sources are still required to attribute unique strains to a founder.
