Effect of nest microclimate temperatures on metabolic rates of small carpenter bees, Ceratina calcarata (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

Canadian Entomologist, 2020
Small carpenter bees (Ceratina calcarata Robertson) (Hymenoptera: Apidae) build their nests in both sunny and shady sites, so maternal decisions about nest sites influence the thermal environment experienced by juveniles throughout development.

Thermoregulatory physiology of the carpenter bee,Xylocopa varipuncta

Journal of Comparative Physiology B, 1986
The carpenter beesXylocopa varipuncta maintain thoracic temperatures of 33.0°C to 46.5°C during continuous free flight from 12°C to 40°C. Since the thoracic temperature excess is not constant (decreasing from 24°C at low air temperatures to 6°C at high) the bees are thermoregulating.

Previous studies of the small carpenter bee, Ceratina calcarata, showed that mothers sometimes produce very small daughters, reminiscent of eusocial workers, suggesting retention of a complex social trait ...
