Metabarcoding of Pollen Carried by Syrphids Reveals Novel Plant–Pollinator Interactions in a Protected Natural Area and Agricultural Sites

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Using DNA metabarcoding, this study investigates pollen transported by syrphids (Syrphidae) in the Dolomiti Bellunesi National Park and agricultural sites in Northern Italy. The analysis reveals a high diversity of visited plant taxa, including previously undocumented plant–pollinator interactions.

Tachinidae (Diptera) as Floral Visitors and Pollinators in Natural and Managed Systems

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
We review the roles of bristle flies (Tachinidae) as pollinators in natural and managed systems. We find that most tachinid genera visit flowers and that floral‐adapted mouthparts have evolved repeatedly many times in the family. We review patterns of floral specificity and assess the efficacy of tachinids as pollinators with case studies.

Characterizing the Use of Botanical Resources from Pollen Loads from Apis mellifera, and Stingless Bees’ Pot-pollen Palynology: An Approach Using Network Analysis and Generalized Linear Models

open access: yesSociobiology
Pollen loads gathered by honeybees and pot-pollen stored by stingless bees are functional foods with commercial potential. The botanical origin influences the physicochemical composition of the corbicular pollen, Apis mellifera’s bee bread, and the ...

Host Detection by Cuckoo Bumblebees: Choice Experiments Reveal Non‐Visual Cues Support Host Detection, but Accuracy Is Low

open access: yesEntomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Female Bombus vestalis cuckoo bumblebees were introduced to a flight arena containing four identical opaque boxes, featuring slits to release volatiles from the bumblebees inside. When only one box contained a developing host colony, the cuckoos were able to locate their hosts among the four boxes with 66.2% accuracy.

Forest edges buffer effects of agricultural management on bee–plant interaction networks

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Agricultural management effects: Organic and conventional crop margins host similar bee and plant species, but network structure differs: organic farms exhibit higher interaction diversity, conventional farms higher connectance. Role of forest edges: Native forest edges stabilize bee–plant networks by providing continuous floral resources and suitable ...

Influence of elevation, climate, snowmelt and floral abundance on body size of solitary bees

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
We measured body size in bee species from a 10‐year specimen collection from Colorado sub‐alpine meadows (2450–3450 m) and tested effects of elevation and annual snowmelt, climate and floral abundance. 2 out of 4 bee species collected across a broad elevation range showed a decline in body size with higher elevations; the other two showed no effect ...
