Preliminary assessment of cavity-nesting Hymenopterans in a low-intensity agricultural landscape in Transylvania. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2021 Nowadays, most regions of the European Union face an increasing agricultural intensification and urbanization, which partially caused a dramatic decline of insect diversity in the last few decades. However, even in the European Union, there are still a few regions and areas remaining, which are not under such a strong human influence and still harbor a

The role of wild bees and cavity-nesting wasps as ecological indicators of the last traditionally managed meadows in Eastern Europe. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe role of wild bees and cavity‐nesting Hymenopteran species as indicators was examined, along the unique combination of high nature value and traditional land use habitats. The different taxonomic groups of wild bees and cavity‐nesting Hymenopterans showed differences in their habitat affinities.

The Mesosoma of Protanilla (Leptanillinae) and the Groundplan of the Formicidae (Hymenoptera). [PDF]
J MorpholPhenomic investigation of the mesosoma of Protanilla lini reveals groundplan features of the ants and raises new homology questions for future investigation, both within Formicidae and across Aculeata. Special highlights include refined definition of the pronotum, complex discoveries of the promesothoracic articulation, and a new perspective on and ...

Müllerian mimicry among bees and wasps: a review of current knowledge and future avenues of research
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 4, Page 1310-1328, August 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Many bees and stinging wasps, or aculeates, exhibit striking colour patterns or conspicuous coloration, such as black and yellow stripes. Such coloration is often interpreted as an aposematic signal advertising aculeate defences: the venomous sting.

Reproductive aspects and pollination biology in endoparasitic Pilostyles thurberi (Apodanthaceae)
Plant Species Biology, Volume 38, Issue 2, Page 40-53, March 2023., 2023 We studied pollination and reproductive strategies of the endoparasitic plant Pilostyles thurberi. The reproductive strategy, floral rewards, pollination system, and variation of their sexual flower arrangement were recorded. This endoparasite presents differences in reproductive success between different sites. Abstract Biotic pollination is typically
