Effects of landscape, resource use, and body size on genetic structure in bee populations. [PDF]
Ecol EvolQuantifying genetic structure and levels of genetic variation are important to predicting the ability of populations to persist in human‐altered landscapes and adapt to future environmental changes. We assessed genetic diversity and genetic structure for seven Euglossine bee species that vary in resource specialization and body size.

Gene Flow Across Large Distances in the Cavity-Nesting Wasp <i>Deuteragenia subintermedia</i> in a Central European Forest. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRetention forestry is widely considered a promising approach to conserve forest biodiversity, and beneficial effects of more heterogeneous forest structure have been shown for several taxa. However, it is often unclear if the approaches taken locally can provide connectivity for specimens over the landscape or if they lead to “biodiversity islands ...

Molecular bases of insect odorant receptor function: specificity and evolution. [PDF]
Biol Rev Camb Philos SocABSTRACT Insect odorant receptors (ORs) are a class of chemoreceptors that insects use to detect volatile cues in their environment. In recent years, major advances in the field of structural biology have made it possible to obtain the first structures of insect ORs.

Large carpenter bees show high dispersal in a tropical semi-arid region susceptible to desertification. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study examines the genetic status of native carpenter bees in a Brazilian region vulnerable to desertification. Employing a population genomic approach, we found low genetic diversity with high homogeneity across populations, even over distances exceeding 300 km.

Urban Landscape Influence Orchid Bee Diversity in a Tropical Megacity
Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The increasing urbanization has affected pollinator communities, such as Euglossini bees, which play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity through the pollination of numerous plants. However, the impact of different levels of urbanization on the diversity of these bees is still not fully understood, especially in large tropical urban ...

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 4, April 2026.Collectively, these findings indicate that agri‐environment schemes aiming to support solitary bees should integrate the provision of nesting resources with proximity to floral resources. The heterogeneity among studies highlights the need for solitary bee conservation measures to be tailored to local conditions and to the local fauna.

Ecological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, Page 165-176, February 2026.Forest cover significantly influences the wing shape of female Trypoxylon lactitarse. Females exhibit longer and narrower wings, linked to greater flight efficiency and dispersal. Sexual dimorphism indicates that females respond differently to ecological pressures, underscoring the role of forest cover in species persistence.
