Multiple Key Hosts and Network Structure Shape Viral Prevalence Across Multispecies Communities of Bees

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.
This study develops a quantitative framework that integrates field data, epidemiological models, simulations, and Bayesian inference to identify key viral hosts in multispecies bee communities. By estimating species‐specific R0 values from flower‐visitor networks and viral screening, we show that honeybees, as well as other wild bees, can drive the ...

Review of the Icelandic bee fauna (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Anthophila) [PDF]

open access: yesStuttgarter Beiträge zur Naturkunde A, 2016
Only one species of the Hymenoptera Apoidea Anthophila is native to Iceland: Bombus jonellus (Kirby, 1802). A second species, Andrena tarsata Nylander, 1848, is mentioned by Schmiedeknecht (1882–1884), but there is reasonable doubt of an existence in Iceland. Four bumblebee species were introduced: B. hortorum (Linnaeus, 1761), first detection in 1959;

Notes on male and female facial patterns in bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea), with comments on other aculeates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pallid (frequently yellow) integumental areas characterize faces of many bees and related wasps.  Some species lack such markings, others lack them only in females, while others have them in both sexes.  A rule applicable to thousands of species is that,

Structural and Functional Co‐Adaptation of Plants of the Genus Lysimachia L. (Primulaceae) and Pollinating Insects of the Genus Macropis Panzer (Hymenoptera, Melittidae)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
The co‐adaptation of bees from the genus Macropis and Lysimachia plants has been studied in detail. Research shows that bees collect not just pure liquid oil from flower petals but tear off trichome heads filled with oil, transferring them to their nests.

Supplementary note on the solitary bee fauna from the Suez Canal region of Egypt (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Previous surveys (2011–2013) of the bee fauna from the Suez Canal region, Egypt, recorded a total of 55 species.  Those surveys did not include important floral species among the Asteraceae, a family known to be associated with various oligolectic bees.

Floral strips increase the abundance and spillover of beneficial insects in rotational crop fields

open access: yesAgricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 653-670, November 2025.
Abstract Insects provide many ecological functions that support agricultural production, but beneficial insect populations are often lower in areas of intensive agriculture. Agronomic practices that support beneficial insect populations are important for sustainable crop production.
