Sociobiology, 2015 Multiple biotic and abiotic variables control the composition, diversity, and temporal fluctuations of insect communities. In particular, the assembly of bee communities is strongly influenced by climatic factors as well as variation in food resource ...

Large-range movements of neotropical orchid bees observed via radio telemetry.
PLoS ONE, 2010 Neotropical orchid bees (Euglossini) are often cited as classic examples of trapline-foragers with potentially extensive foraging ranges. If long-distance movements are habitual, rare plants in widely scattered locations may benefit from euglossine ...

Orchid bee (Hymenoptera: Apidae) community from a gallery forest in the Brazilian Cerrado
Revista de Biología Tropical, 2012 The orchid bees are a very important group of pollinators distributed in the Neotropics. Although a lot of studies concerning male euglossine bees have been done in this region, few works have so far been carried out in the Cerrado biome. This manuscript

On egg eclosion and larval development in euglossine bees
American Museum Novitates, 2018 ABSTRACT This study explores egg eclosion and larval biology of orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini) in light of existing knowledge from studies dealing with a group of tribes within the Apidae referred to as corbiculate bees. It reports that Eulaema (Apeulaema) polychroma (Mocsary) has five larval instars, and its first instar exists only briefly in that ...

POLLINATION OF DALECHAMPIA MAGNOLIIFOLIA (EUPHORBIACEAE) BY MALE EUGLOSSINE BEES
American Journal of Botany, 1989 Flowers of Dalechampia magnoliifolia in eastern Peru were pollinated primarily by male Eulaema meriana and E. cingulata, which collected fragrance from the secretory gland borne in the staminate cymule. The fragrance contains carvone oxide, benzyl acetate, limonene, α‐pinene, myrcine, β‐pinene/camphene, and carvone. Trigona cf.

Urban Landscape Influence Orchid Bee Diversity in a Tropical Megacity
Journal of Applied Entomology, Volume 150, Issue 8, Page 1153-1163, September 2026.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 ...
