Annie Dorothy Betts (1884 – 8 September 1961) was a British mathematician, aeronautical researcher, apiculturist, bee disease expert, author and editor.

She made scientifically significant observations on honeybees, wrote books on apiculture, and edited the journal Bee World.

[3] During the First World War Betts worked at the Royakl Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough[4] as an aeronautical engineer.

[5] Her work from this resulted in two publications: Empirical Formulae for a Variable Pitch Airscrew, with Applications to the Prediction of Aeroplane performance (1919)[6] and The Effect of Variable Gearing on Aeroplane Performance (1923).

[8] Betts was also a prolific contributor to that journal and published over 170 articles on various subjects relating to honeybees within its pages.
