Comparative Anatomy and Histology of the Alimentary Canal of Adult Apinae

Journal of Apicultural Research, 1967
SUMMARYThe alimentary canals of workers of 15 species of social bees, including Apis, Bombus and four genera of meliponids, were compared. The anatomical differences were greater than the histological ones, and were most noticeable in the most specialized parts of the alimentary canal. In some respects the meliponids formed a group distinct from Bombus

Behavioral Phylogeny of Corbiculate Apidae (Hymenoptera; Apinae), with Special Reference to Social Behavior

Cladistics, 2002
The phylogenetic relationships among the four tribes of corbiculate bees (Euglossini, Bombini, Meliponini, and Apini) are controversial. There is substantial incongruence between morphological and molecular data, and the single origin of eusociality is questionable.

Phylogeny of the orchid bees (Hymenoptera: Apinae: Euglossini): DNA and morphology yield equivalent patterns

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2004
Orchid bees (Euglossini) are spectacular long-tongued Neotropical bees important in the pollination of Neotropical long-corolla flowers, particularly some orchids. Besides remarkably long tongues, males in particular exhibit other flower-related adaptations, including setal brushes on the foretarsi used for rasping the petals of orchids while ...

Phylogenetic analysis of the corbiculate Apinae based on morphology of the sting apparatus (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Cladistics, 2007
AbstractThis study aimed to test the various competing hypotheses regarding the relationships among the four tribes of corbiculate apine bees (Euglossini “orchid bees”, Bombini “bumble bees”, Meliponini “stingless bees”, and Apini “honey bees”) with a completely new set of previously unstudied morphological characters derived from the sting apparatus ...

Historical Biogeography of the Meliponini (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Apinae) of the Neotropical Region

2012
The Meliponini have a pantropical distribution (Indo-Australia, the Neotropics and Africa-Madagascar) which includes continental disjunctions unique among the Apidae, revealing a complex history of vicariance events of great antiquity. The trait of disjunction by vicariance permits the inference that Meliponini possibly had their origin on the ancient ...
