Distinct Intra‐ and Interspecific Foraging Patterns of Stingless Bee Species as a Conservation Tool

Biotropica, Volume 57, Issue 5, September 2025.
In this study, we examined the foraging patterns of three rescued stingless bee species in the Bolivian Yungas using melissopalynology and plant–pollinator network analysis. We found distinct floral foraging patterns both within and among three stingless bee species in the Bolivian Yungas, suggesting niche partitioning at multiple levels.
