Altruistic self‐removal of health‐compromised honey bee workers from their hive [PDF]
AbstractSocial insect colonies represent distinct units of selection. Most individuals evolve by kin selection and forgo individual reproduction. Instead, they display altruistic food sharing, nest maintenance and self‐sacrificial colony defence. Recently, altruistic self‐removal of diseased worker ants from their colony was described as another ...

Removal of clay by stingless bees: load size and moisture selection [PDF]
Some organisms disperse energy, associated with the transportation of resource, which is not necessarily food. Stingless bees of Central Amazonia (Melipona flavolineata and M. lateralis) collect clay in banks along streams for nest building. The moisture of the clay varies along the bank, and bees collect clay from specific location, indicating that ...

Africanized honey bees are efficient at detecting, uncapping and removing dead brood
The hygienic behavior of honey bees is based on a two-step process, including uncapping and removing diseased, dead, damaged, or parasitized brood inside the cell. We evaluated during periods of 1 h the time that hygienic and non-hygienic colonies of Africanized honey bees spend to detect, uncap and remove pin-killed brood using comb inserts with ...
