Behavioural responses by a bumble bee to competition with a niche‐constructing congener
Journal of Animal Ecology, Volume 91, Issue 3, Page 580-592, March 2022., 2022 Nectar robbing by flower‐biting bumble bees constitutes ecological niche construction if robbing holes persist and intensify nectar competition experienced by non‐biting, bystander flower visitors. In response, bystanders can tolerate robbing, switch plant species or adopt robbing, perhaps partially compensating for exploitative competition associated ...
