Introduced honey bees increase host plant abundance but decrease native bumble bee species richness and abundance

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 13, Issue 6, June 2022., 2022
Abstract Long‐term variation in the population density of introduced honey bees (Apis mellifera) has been shown to be associated with variations in floral traits in alpine lotus (Saussurea nigrescens). However, it remains to be determined whether a high density of honey bees affects the abundance of nectariferous plants and the species richness and ...
