Detection of honey bee viruses in Argentinian stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Insectes Sociaux, 2018 The Meliponini is a eusocial group of bees tropically distributed. In Argentina, 37 species have been recorded, mostly in Misiones province. They use a great variety of sites to build their nests including tree hollows, cavities formed in rocks, human ...

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 10, October 2025.ABSTRACT Aim The distribution of species relying on mutualistic partners for reproduction can be constrained by their partners' distribution. Nonetheless, biotic interactions are often overlooked when estimating the distributions of species (e.g., pollinators of a given plant and the proportion of them with their distribution modelled). In the Tropics,

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 807-823, October 2025.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 ...

DIMINISHING OF TRUE POWER LOSS BY APIDAE ALGORITHM
International Journal of Research -GRANTHAALAYAH, 2018 In this paper, Apidae Algorithm (AA) is proposed for solving reactive power problem. Apidae Algorithm, inspired from the natural foraging behaviour of Apidae, & it has been utilized to solve the reactive power problem. The AA algorithm carry out the intensified neighbourhood search united with a random mode exploration search.

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 824-837, October 2025.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.

Exploring the importance of aromatic plants' extrafloral volatiles for pollinator attraction
New Phytologist, Volume 248, Issue 2, Page 517-528, October 2025.Summary Aromatic plants occur in many plant lineages and have widespread ethnobiological significance. Yet, the ecological significance and evolutionary origins of aromatic volatile emissions remain uncertain. Aromatic emissions have been implicated in defensive interactions but may also have other important functions.

The melectine bee genera Brachymelecta and Sinomelecta (Hymenoptera, Apidae)
ZooKeys, 2012 The enigmatic, cleptoparasitic bee genera Brachymelecta Linsley and Sinomelecta Baker (Apinae: Melectini) are redescribed, each represented by a single species which has not been reencountered since capture of the type series ca. 1878 and 1900, respectively.
