Bees of the Azores: an annotated checklist (Apidae, Hymenoptera) [PDF]
We report 18 species of wild bees plus the domesticated honeybee from the Azores, which adds nine species to earlier lists. One species, Hylaeus azorae, seems to be a single island endemic, and three species are possibly native (Colletes eous, Halictus villosulus, and Hylaeus pictipes).

Expression of the melittin gene of Apis cerana cerana (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in insect cells
A fragment encoding melittin cDNA from Apis cerana cerana fused with glutathione S-transferase gene was inserted into the multiple cloning site of the pBacFastHTb to construct a recombinant donor plasmid, pBacHT-GSTAccM, which was transposed to the ...

A Local Replacement of \u3ci\u3eBombus Ternarius\u3c/i\u3e by \u3ci\u3eBombus Terricola\u3c/i\u3e in Northern Wisconsin (Hymenoptera: Apidae) [PDF]
During the last few years, the bumblebee Bombus ternarius Say has markedly decreased in numbers in Vilas County in northern Wisconsin while Bombus terricola Kirby has increased. The great ecological similarity of these species suggests that interspecific

Heterospecific Hymenoptera found inside the nests of Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae). [PDF]
The nests of social Hymenoptera are particularly attractive to species engaging in resource robbing due to their concentration of resources. Here, the identity of heterospecific intruders in Bombus impatiens nests are described, with a particular focus ...
