Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.An extensive survey of wild bee and bee–plant networks in Sardinia (Italy) highlights high species richness and diversity, particularly in mainland agroecosystems. All interaction networks were highly specialized, modular, and not nested, indicating potential ecological vulnerability, though varying across sites and on a temporal scale.

Arthropod Assemblages in Desert Ecosystems of Alula County, Saudi Arabia
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.This study provides preliminary descriptions of arthropod communities in two desert habitats—arid thorn woodlands and wadis—across protected areas in AlUla County, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Pitfall trapping over a 6‐day period yielded more than 2000 specimens representing at least 189 morphospecies, with ants (Formicidae) and springtails ...

Colletidae nesting biology (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) [PDF]
Apidologie, 2008 Colletidae are unique among bees for certain aspects of their nesting biology. In this review, attributes of colletid nesting are evaluated and discussed in light of a novel phylogenetic hypothesis for the family. Some predictions made about evolution of certain traits, such as the cocoon-spinning behavior of Diphaglossinae, are confronted with ...

Pollinators maintain biodiversity in assembling plant communities
Ecology, Volume 107, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Most angiosperms are animal‐pollinated, and animal pollination increases fitness in many plant species. Although it is less well‐studied than other factors, plant biodiversity may be maintained by pollinators and the associated seedling recruitment that occurs after fertilization. We experimentally applied three levels of pollinator visitation

The native bee fauna of the Palouse Prairie (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) [PDF]
, 2017 While synoptic collections provide data on the range and general composition of the North American bee fauna, bee communities associated with specific habitats are largely uncharacterized.

Agrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 1, March 2026.ABSTRACT Soil acidity is among the most important abiotic stresses globally constraining agricultural land and crop productivity. Globally, about 30%–40% of total arable land is under the influence of acidic soil. In Ethiopia, approximately 43% of arable land and productive areas are constrained by acidic soil.

Ecological Applications, Volume 36, Issue 2, March 2026.Abstract Global declines in bee populations are threatening the ecosystem services they provide, including pollination. Many bee–plant interactions are understudied, producing an incomplete understanding of resulting ecosystem‐level vulnerabilities. The last decade has generated a wealth of opportunistic data originating from natural history collection
