Tropical Bee Assemblage Diversity Decreases With Elevation While Body Size Increases

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 58, Issue 4, July 2026.
Photos of bee specimens collected in the Colombian Andes across a nearly 3000 m elevational cline. They are arranged to illustrate both the decline in richness with elevation and the increase in community average body size with elevation. ABSTRACT Elevation gradients are powerful drivers of changes in species composition, richness, and functional ...

Do Laboratory‐Reared Flies Perform Differently as Pollinators? Morphology, Behaviour and Pollination Performance of Eristalis tenax (Syrphidae)

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 6, Page 716-727, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Flies (Diptera) are important pollinators in global agriculture, yet little is known about how intraspecific trait variation influences their pollination performance. We compared morphological traits, foraging behaviour and pollination‐related performance metrics between laboratory‐reared (hereafter lab‐reared) and wild populations of ...

Proteomic Characterization of the Venom of Five Bombus (Thoracobombus) Species

open access: yesToxins, 2017
Venomous animals use venom, a complex biofluid composed of unique mixtures of proteins and peptides, to act on vital systems of the prey or predator. In bees, venom is solely used for defense against predators.

Fatty Acids from Pool Lipids as Possible Precursors of the Male Marking Pheromone in Bumblebees

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
Triacylglycerols (TGs) stored in the fat bodies of bumblebee males have a species-specific composition. The striking structural similarities between TG fatty acids (FAs) and components of the male marking pheromone in certain species led to the ...

Bumblebee assemblages (Hymenoptera, Apidae) of ruderal habitats in the Kola Peninsula, NW Russia

open access: yesFauna Norvegica, 2015
Bumblebee assemblages of ruderal habitats were studied in the Kola Peninsula in 2012. The number of species in the assemblages varies from 7 to 11. Of cryptic species Bombus sensu stricto in the Kola Peninsula only Bombus cryptarum was registered.

Individuality and consistency in foraging behaviour of the Bumblebee Bombus terrestris

open access: yes, 2012
PhDMany vertebrates and a few invertebrates are known to show individual-specific consistency in their behaviour across time and situations, sometimes in ways that can be paralleled with human personality.
