The analysis palynological of three samples of honey produced by Apis mellifera in three localities of the State of Morelos was made. The samples were processed according to the technique of Erdtman´s acetolysis slightly modified. We identified 23 pollen types from 18 families, of which eight are percentages higher than 10% mention: Arracacia sp. (Apiaceae); Asteraceae type 1 and type 2; Brassica sp. and type 1 (Brassicaceae); Chenopodiaceae-Amaranthaceae; Salvia sp. (Lamiaceae) and Lopezia sp. (Onagraceae). The best represented families were: Asteraceae and Brassicaceae. Weed plants and ruderal herbaceous stratum were the most important. It was determined that two of the analyzed honeys were monofloral and one was multifloral.
