Effects of habitat composition and landscape structure on worker foraging distances of five bumblebee species [PDF]
Bumblebees (Bombus spp.) are important pollinators of both crops and wild flowers. Their contribution to this essential ecosystem service has been threatened over recent decades by changes in land use, which have led to declines in their populations.

Heterospecific Hymenoptera found inside the nests of Bombus impatiens (Hymenoptera: Apidae). [PDF]
The nests of social Hymenoptera are particularly attractive to species engaging in resource robbing due to their concentration of resources. Here, the identity of heterospecific intruders in Bombus impatiens nests are described, with a particular focus ...

Bumble bees exhibit body size clines across an urban gradient despite low genetic differentiation
Environmental heterogeneity resulting from human-modified landscapes can increase intraspecific trait variation. However, less known is whether such phenotypic variation is driven by plastic or adaptive responses to local environments.
