The common name for the Killer Bee is the Africanized Honey Bee.
The Africanized honey bees (aka killer bee) is a more aggressive bee than the regular honey bee. The "killer bee" was created by cross breeding the African Honey Bee with various European Honey Bees. The fear many Bee Keepers feared when it was discovered that the "killer" bee's were heading to the U.S. was safety for their honey bee's. Since the Africanized honey bee was/is more aggressive.
