Queen turnover, nest usurpation and colony mortality in wild nests of the stingless bees Tetragonula carbonaria and Tetragonula hockingsi (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Austral Entomology, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2025.
Abstract Social bees of the tribe Meliponini (stingless bees) are used as managed pollinators of crops throughout the world's tropical and subtropical regions. On Australia's East Coast, two native species—Tetragonula carbonaria and Tetragonula hockingsi—are the most widely propagated in hives, but knowledge of their biology and ecology in natural ...

Geographic Range and Nest Architecture of Cephalotrigona Capitata Smith, 1854 (Apidae: Meliponini) in the State of Bahia, Northeastern Brazil

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2019
The bees of the genus Cephalotrigona (locally known as “mombucas”) play a key role in natural environments but their bioecological features, required to design proper management and conservation strategies, are scarce in most species.

Understanding the genetics of sex determination in insects and its relevance to genetic pest management

Insect Molecular Biology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 363-380, June 2025.
In insect sex determination pathways, the primary signals may vary within and between insect orders; however, the relay and terminal genes are more conserved. The upstream components of insect sex determination pathways ensure the downstream components are sex‐specifically spliced to regulate the development of male and female‐specific traits in a sex ...

Butterflies, bumblebees and hoverflies are equally effective pollinators of Knautia arvensis (Caprifoliaceae), a generalist plant species with compound inflorescences

Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 5, Page 685-696, June 2025.
Abstract Plant‐pollinator interactions exist along a continuum from complete specialisation to highly generalised, that may vary in time and space. A long‐held assumption is that large bees are usually the most effective pollinators of generalist plants.

Effect of the colour of pitfall traps on their capture efficiency of carabid beetles (Coleoptera: Carabidae), spiders (Araneae) and other arthropods

European Journal of Entomology, 2010
Pitfall trapping is one of the most commonly used methods of sampling ground-dwelling arthropods. There are many studies on the effect of design of pitfall traps on their capture efficiency but, so far, none on the influence of the colour of the pitfall ...
