Redefining taxonomic boundaries of the genus Galtonia (Hyacinthaceae) and a new genus, Stellifloris, described

open access: yesTAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract Genera form the basis for higher taxonomic classification and should be easily recognizable, predictive, and stable, and should reflect the evolutionary history of their constituents, with monophyly as a key principle of modern classification.

Hidden Microbiota Inhabiting in Pollen Reserves of Honey Bee (Apis mellifera) From Amazonas Region Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 4, August 2026.
DNA metabarcoding of honey bee pollen reserves from Amazonas region reveals that microbial communities are strongly shaped by their ecosystem. Despite high taxonomic turnover across different habitats, these microbiomes maintain stable, essential functions for pollinator health, though they remain highly vulnerable to habitat homogenization.

Unveiling the AcSirt2‐FOXO‐Mitophagy Axis: Insights Into Mitochondrial Quality Control and Delayed Aging in Apis cerana

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 8, August 2026.
Age‐related downregulation of AcSirt2 impairs mitochondrial homeostasis in old bees. AcSirt2‐mediated deacetylation of FOXO enhances transcriptional activity, upregulating antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT) and promoting PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy. This pathway facilitates autophagosome formation and clearance of damaged mitochondria, reducing ROS ...

Diversity of Mites Associated With Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera: Meliponini) in Forest Fragments in Brazil: Empirical Validation of an Efficient and Low‐Cost Sampling Method

open access: yesAustral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Despite the importance of understanding mite–bee interactions, standardized and noninvasive methods for sampling mite communities in stingless bee hives remain limited. This study aimed to evaluate a novel, low‐cost sampling technique using a custom‐built suction device, the Portable Mite Aspirator (PMA), for collecting mites from hives of ...

The wild honeybee population of Europe is in decline: Evidence from monitoring studies

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 8, August 2026.
Studying the population trends of wild honeybees is possible when considering that managed and wild colonies form different subpopulations within regional honeybee metapopualtions. Abstract Populations of wild western honeybees (Apis mellifera) have been neglected because the species has been considered to consist of managed colonies only.
