Microsatellite loci for euglossine bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Molecular Ecology Notes, 2007AbstractThe Neotropical Euglossini (Hymenoptera: Apidae) are important pollinators of many flowering plants, particularly orchids. Lack of highly polymorphic genetic markers for euglossine species has limited the study of their social organization and inbreeding.

POPULATION GENETICS, DIPLOID MALES, AND LIMITS TO SOCIAL EVOLUTION OF EUGLOSSINE BEES
Evolution; International Journal of Organic Evolution, 1996Population genetics using allozyme electrophoresis of four euglossine bee genera in Panama revealed high proportions of diploid males among social species but no genetic polymorphism in seasonal and parasitic species, thus, no possibility for discrimination of diploid males.

Diversity and Seasonality of Male Euglossine Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Central PanamÁ
Ecology, 1983Seasonal changes in species richness, composition, and abundance of male euglossine bees were determined by weekly censusing of individuals attracted to 16 chemical baits. Bee populations were monitored for >1 yr in the lowland tropical moist forest of seasonally dry Barro Colorado Island (BCI), Panama.

Population Dynamics of Male Euglossine Bees in Amazonian Forest Fragments
Biotropica, 1987At sites near Manaus, Amazonas, Brazil we measured the impact of forest fragmentation on populations of male euglossine bees. The visitation rates of 15 species of male euglossine bees to three chemical attractants were determined for continuous forest; isolated 1, 10, and 100 ha forest fragments; and a cleared area.

Thermoregulation and Heat Exchange in Euglossine Bees
Physiological Zoology, 1983The relations of the temperatures of the thorax ($T_{th}$), head ($T_{h}$), and abdomen ($T_{ab}$) to air temperature ($T_{a}$) are described for male euglossine bees attracted to baits. The large, pubescent bees in the genera Eulaema and Eufriesea regulated $T_{th}$ fairly well, as indicated by the slope of $T_{th}$ on $T_{a}$; $T_{h}$ was distinctly ...

Diploid Male Frequencies in Colombian Populations of Euglossine Bees
Biotropica, 2007ABSTRACTSome studies have recently reported high diploid male frequencies in euglossine bees indicating possible population declines. We estimated the genetic variability and frequency of males that are diploid in five Colombian species of euglossine bees using allozyme markers. Expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.10 to 0.23.
