Diapause in Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Sociobiology, 2014 Extreme environmental conditions may negatively affect development animals which present behavior strategies in order survivor them. Insects present a wide range of adaptive behaviors that have allowed them to successfully respond to adverse climatic conditions by temporarily interrupting some of their activities or development.

The bumble bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Bombus) of Arkansas, fifty years later [PDF]
, 2015 Many species of bumble bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Bombus Latreille) are declining throughout their ranges in North America, yet detecting population trends can be difficult when historical survey data are lacking. In the present study, contemporary data

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.Human–elephant conflict situations continue to be a growing conservation issue. Conflict situations typically arise as the result of elephants traversing places with infrastructure where they become disruptive to human activities. Developing passive options for managing elephant movement and reducing human–elephant conflict situations is a conservation

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.We investigated the quantity and diversity of animal–visitor interactions in BIAZA‐accredited facilities, finding 740 opportunities for interactions across a range of contexts including walkthroughs and handling. Meet and greets were the most offered and were influenced by the number of individual animals, cost of interaction, and animal popularity ...

Journal of Ecology, EarlyView.The authors demonstrate how the effects of herbivory on a key plant trait can cascade to shape the interactions between individual plants and their flower visitors and how the indirect effects between herbivores and pollinators can modulate the structure of interaction networks in terrestrial ecosystems.
