Menecrates of Ephesus (/məˈnɛkrətiːz/; Greek: Μενεκράτης ὁ Ἐφέσιος; 330–270 BC) was a Greek didactic poet of the Hellenistic period.[1] He wrote a poem called the Works which was modeled upon Hesiod's Works and Days and included a discussion of bees based on the work of Aristotle. He was the teacher of the astronomical poet Aratus.[2] The few surviving fragments were included by Hermann Diels in the collection Poetarum Philosophorum Fragmenta (1901). [3]
