Hive Insulation Increases Foraging Activities of Bumble Bees (Bombus impatiens) in a Wild Blueberry Field in Quebec, Canada

Agronomy
Common eastern bumble bees (Bombus impatiens Cresson) play an essential role in pollinating lowbush blueberries (LB) in northern Quebec, but their costs and the suboptimal weather conditions during pollination highlight the need to find appropriate hive ...

Exposure of Larvae of the Solitary Bee Osmia bicornis to the Honey Bee Pathogen Nosema ceranae Affects Life History [PDF]

, 2019
Wild bees are important pollinators of wild plants and agricultural crops and they are threatened by several environmental stressors including emerging pathogens. Honey bees have been suggested as a potential source of pathogen spillover.

Fantastic bees and where to find them: locating the cryptic overwintering queens of a western bumble bee

Ecosphere, 2019
Bumble bees are among the best‐studied bee groups worldwide, yet surprisingly we know almost nothing about their overwintering habitats nor the microsite characteristics that govern selection of these sites.

Comparison of Different Pollen Substitutes for the Feeding of Laboratory Reared Bumble Bee (Bombus Terrestris) Colonies

Journal of Apicultural Science, 2020
In bumble bee colonies, pollen is the only protein source for larval feeding and its shortage causes a distress in larval development. Adult bumble bees need pollen for the development of glands and the reproductive system.

Plant Functional Traits and Vegetation Structure Explain Pollination Networks at Scale

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
Being able to quantify interactions between different taxa at scale is critical for understanding terrestrial ecosystem functioning and global food production, as in the case of plant‐pollinator interactions. Here, we apply plant functional strategies remotely sensed at the landscape scale to predict the structure of plant‐pollinator networks at a ...

Brood care by male bumble bees [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1985
Male Bombus griseocollis (Hymenoptera: Apidae) share in the brood care of nestmates by incubating pupae (usually during the first few days after they emerge as adults). Male posture during incubation of a pupa is identical to that observed for females.
