Temporal variation in the abundance of Orchid Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in a Neotropical Hygrophilous Forest [PDF]
Sociobiology, 2014 Although bees are important pollinators in several ecosystems around the world, studies on bee diversity in hygrophilous forests are scarce. This type of vegetation is restricted to permanently wet soils and, therefore, has particular floristic ...

Long‐term (1979–2019) dynamics of protected orchid bees in Panama
Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 3, Issue 12, December 2021., 2021 We gathered quantitative data on 33 species of an intact orchid bee community in lowland forest. Our two studies combined included half the months during 50 years' monitoring. Most species increased or were stable, but the declines included some of the most common and, therefore, unthreatened species.

Parasitic Behavior of Exaerete smaragdina with Descriptions of Its Mature Oocyte and Larval Instars (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Euglossini) [PDF]
American Museum Novitates, 2001 Abstract The behavior patterns of Exaerete smaragdina (Guerin-Meneville), a cleptoparasite of Eulaema nigrita (Lepeletier de Saint Fargeau), are described. Included are nest-searching behavior, behavior in the nest of the host, interactions between the host and parasite, and egg placement and number of eggs per host nest.
