A New Method for Quick and Easy Hemolymph Collection from Apidae Adults

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Bio-analysis of insects is increasingly dependent on highly sensitive methods that require high quality biological material, such as hemolymph. However, it is difficult to collect fresh and uncontaminated hemolymph from adult bees since they are very ...

Insect–flower interactions, ecosystem functions, and restoration ecology in the northern Sahel: current knowledge and perspectives

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 969-995, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Actions for ecological restoration under the Great Green Wall (GGW) initiative in the northern Sahel have been plant focused, paying scant attention to plant–animal interactions that are essential to ecosystem functioning. Calls to accelerate implementation of the GGW make it timely to develop a more solid conceptual foundation for restoration

A bumblebee thioredoxin-like protein gene that is up-regulated by a temperature stimulus and lipopolysaccharide injection

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
A thioredoxin-like protein (txl) gene was cloned from the bumblebee, Bombus ignitus. The B. ignitus txl (Bitxl) gene spans 1777 bp and consists of three introns and four exons coding for 285 amino acid residues with a conserved active site (CGPC).

Effects of Neonicotinoid Imidacloprid Exposure on Bumble Bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae) Queen Survival and Nest Initiation

open access: yesEnvironmental Entomology, 2017
Neonicotinoids are highly toxic to insects and may systemically translocate to nectar and pollen of plants where foraging bees may become exposed. Exposure to neonicotinoids can induce detrimental sublethal effects on individual and colonies of bees and ...

Multitrophic assembly influences β‐diversity across a tripartite system of flowering plants, bees, and bee‐gut microbiomes

open access: yesEcography, Volume 2025, Issue 4, April 2025.
Theoretical frameworks of terrestrial community assembly often focus on single trophic levels (e.g. plants) without considering how complex interdependencies across different trophic levels influence assembly mechanisms. Yet, when multiple trophic levels are considered (e.g.

Pollination of Sedirea japonica (Orchidaceae) by Bombus diversus diversus (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2013
There are no records of the pollinators of many orchids even though the Orchidaceae are often cited as the example of an intimate relationship between plants and their pollinators.

Ultraconserved element (UCE) phylogenomics illuminates the evolutionary history and biogeography of Dorymyrmex pyramid ants

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 325-348, April 2025.
A newly expanded UCE phylogeny of Dorymyrmex robustly confirms the major lineages and recommends a new scheme of four major species groups. The asymmetrical, amphitropical distribution of Dorymyrmex was likely created by a single dispersal event across the Isthmus of Panama before the traditional closure date of 3 Mya.

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

open access: yesJournal 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.

Detection of honey bee viruses in Argentinian stingless bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

open access: yesInsectes 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 ...
