The final moments of landing in bumblebees, Bombus terrestris

Journal of Comparative Physiology A: Neuroethology, Sensory, Neural, and Behavioral Physiology, 2016
In comparison to other insects, like honeybees, bumblebees are very effective pollinators. Even though landing is a crucial part of pollination, little is known about how bumblebees orchestrate the final, critical moments of landing. Here, we use high-speed recordings to capture the fine details of the landing behaviour of free-flying bumblebees ...

Learning of geometry and features in bumblebees (Bombus terrestris).

Journal of Comparative Psychology, 2013
Bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) were trained to find one of the four exit holes located in the corners of an enclosed environment with a distinctive geometry (a rectangular cage). Panels located at the corners provided nongeometric, featural cues. Between trials bumblebees were passively disoriented to disable dead reckoning.

Heritability of sperm length in the bumblebee Bombus terrestris

Genetica, 2006
Sperm length is highly variable, both between and within species, but the evolutionary significance of this variation is poorly understood. Sexual selection on sperm length requires a significant additive genetic variance, but few studies have actually measured this.
