The native bee fauna of the Palouse Prairie (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) [PDF]
While synoptic collections provide data on the range and general composition of the North American bee fauna, bee communities associated with specific habitats are largely uncharacterized.

Assessing pathogen risk for wild bumblebees (Bombus spp., Apidae) in Canada
Pathogen spillover poses a significant threat to wild bumble bees (Bombus spp.) in Canada. Our study maps areas of overlap between high conservation priority regions for bumble bees and regions of pathogen spillover risk from managed bees, incorporating uncertainty in pathogen prevalence.

Fluorescent colors in orchid bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) [PDF]
The presence of UV-fluorescent pigments is described for the first time in insects. The clear hairs on terga I, III and IV of Eulaema niveofasciata (Friese) are the only ones among several Euglossina species which fluoresce, supporting recent taxonomic studies which suggested that this endemic species of the Atlantic Forest domain and Eulaema ...

The draft genome sequence of the Japanese honey bee, Apis cerana japonica (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Honey bees are not only important for honey production but also as pollinators of wild and cultivated plants. The Eastern honeybee (Apis cerana) is more resistant to several pathogens than the Western honeybee (Apis mellifera), and the genomes of two ...

We investigated the compatibility of beekeeping with pollinator conservation in ‘prairie strips’ a conservation practice integrating native prairie habitat into agricultural environments. At prairie strip sites with and without a honey bee apiary, we analysed plant–bee interactions and bumble bee body conditions to determine the effect of apiaries on ...

We found that a dry active season increased abundance for large bees (Bombus impatiens and Xenoglossa pruinosa), whereas Agapostemon virescens and Ceratina calcarata were more abundant in wet active seasons. A dry year resulted in larger individuals with reduced foraging effort for most bees and communities were relatively more female‐biased.
