Diversity and Nesting Substrates of Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera, Meliponina) in a Forest Remnant

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
Stingless bees are abundant and diverse key actors in several plant‐pollinator networks in the neotropics, but little is known about their natural history and ecology. This study aims to contribute to knowledge about the diversity and dispersion of stingless bees and discusses the importance of nesting substrates.

Annual Course of Matric Potential in Differently Used Savanna Oxisols in Brazil

Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 63, Issue 6, Page 1778-1785, November 1999., 1999
Sustainable land use in periodically dry Brazilian savannas requires a water‐saving management. We hypothesized that the annual course of matric potentials (ψM) in very‐fine, isohyperthermic Anionic Acrustoxes of Pinus plantations (PI), degraded (DP) and productive pastures (PP), no‐till (NT) and conventional tillage (CT) cropping, and natural savanna (
