Local and landscape features of urban fragments determine the occurrence of stingless bees As características locais e paisagísticas dos fragmentos urbanos determinam a ocorrência de uma espécie de abelhas sem ferrão

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Both local and landscape factors associated with habitat availability and quality determine the persistence of stingless bees across fragments. Places where the species occurs have local and landscape characteristics distinctive from those where it is absent.

Associations between soil characteristics and ground‐nesting bees on farms Associations entre les caractéristiques du sol et les abeilles terricoles dans les exploitations agricoles

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
We collected ground‐nesting bees at 35 farms over two summers and assessed their abundance, diversity, and community composition in relation to local soil characteristics (texture, compaction, slope, and ground cover). Ground‐nesting bee abundance and species richness increased with bare ground and sand content.

Pollen exploitation by non‐native, feral honey bees: Potential consequences for interspecific competition

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
In Southern California, a global hotspot of bee biodiversity, predominantly feral populations of the exotic western honey bee constitute an estimated 90% of individual bees and 98% of bee biomass. Honey bee foragers remove 80% of total pollen during the first day flowers open on three common native species, with their first two visits removing over 60%
