Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.Urban community gardens showed a high wild bee diversity with 168 recorded species, representing roughly 30% of Germany's wild bees, including threatened species like Osmia mitis and Coelioxys lanceolata. Floral resources, not nesting resources or habitat availability, were the main drivers for wild bee taxonomic and functional diversity.

Agricultural and Forest Entomology, Volume 28, Issue 4, Page 636-647, November 2026.We extracted pollen from colony beeswax to quantify season‐long, colony‐level resource use and tested how managed Bombus impatiens visitation and Rosaceae pollen collection relate to landscape context and strawberry pollination. Increased managed bumble bee visitation was not influenced by surrounding landcover, did not reduce pollen limitation and ...

Measurement of electric charges on foraging bumblebees (Bombus terrestris)
Journal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019 Abstract Bumblebees carry electric charge. Almost always positive, this charge facilitates pollen transfer between bumblebee and flower during pollination and is likely to play a role in the detection of electric fields. Models of the Coulomb forces acting on pollen grains during pollination are predominantly based upon laboratory ...

The Future of Native Bees in Australia Under Environmental and Anthropogenic Change
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.Bees are considered one of the most important and abundant pollinators across the globe, yet they are under threat from anthropogenic activities such as land‐clearing, urbanisation, agricultural activities, pesticide use, non‐native flora and fauna introductions, disruption of natural fire regimes, pollution and climate change, among others.

A core linkage map of the bumblebeeBombus terrestris
Genome, 2006 The bumblebee Bombus terrestris is an economically important pollinator and an emerging model species in quantitative and population genetics. We generated genetic linkage maps for 3 independent mapping populations of B. terrestris. The linkage map with the highest resolution had 21 linkage groups, which adequately represents the haploid chromosome ...

Genomics Reveal Population Crash and Range Contraction in Elusive Fijian Hylaeus Bees
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.We used a novel paired low‐lying and canopy sampling technique with genomic data to assess the recently discovered canopy‐specialist Fijian Hylaeus bee clade. We found major (~99%) declines in population size since European colonisation, limited contemporary distributions and inter‐island genetic structuring.

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.Wind turbines influence several abiotic conditions in the environments they are sited in and may influence the behavior and movement of insect pollinators. It is unknown how operating turbines influence plant–pollinator interactions. To investigate if pollination dynamics could be affected by the presence of wind turbines, we recorded videos of ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 10, Page 3213-3224, October 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Ecosystem services provide essential benefits to human survival and well‐being. Animal behaviour is central to the delivery of many ecosystem services, yet we know little about how behaviour drives services' provision.
