Examining Honeybee (Apis mellifera) Dominance Patterns Within Urban Bee Communities Worldwide [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Urban ecosystems can host diverse bee communities. However, the increasing prevalence of urban honeybees (Apis mellifera Linnaeus 1758) raises concerns about their ecological impact. Using a systematic review of published studies, we obtained 68 datasets
