Flower‐Derived Environmental DNA Reveals Community Diversity, Species Abundances and Ecological Interactions in Bee Pollinators

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 4, July–August 2025.
We show that communities of wild bees can be accurately characterized by flower‐derived environmental DNA. eDNA based monitoring recovers relative abundances of individual bee species and provides information on the ecological specificity of different bees on individual plants.

Microbial Evolution in Allodapine Bees: Perspectives From Trophallactic, Socially Plastic Pollinators

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT This review seeks a deeper functional understanding of wild bee microbiomes by focusing on a tribe of bees where natural history and behavioral ecology are well known but investigations of microbiology are just beginning. Opportunities to improve our future knowledge of pathogens to insect pollinators are explored—which have broad ...

Larvae and Nests of Six Aculeate Hymenoptera (Hymenoptera: Aculeata) Nesting in Reed Galls Induced by Lipara spp. (Diptera: Chloropidae) with a Review of Species Recorded.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Wetland species of aculeate Hymenoptera are poorly known, even though many of them may serve as diagnostic or flagship species in nature conservation. Here we examined 6,018 galls induced ≥1 year prior their collection by the chloropid flies Lipara spp ...

Pollination ecology of New Zealand orchids : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ecology at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The New Zealand orchid flora comprises twenty-five genera and at least 100 species occurring throughout the country. Although the number of endemic species is high (69%) only four genera are endemic to New Zealand.

First Records of the Adventive Pseudoanthidium nanum (Mocsáry) (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) in Illinois and Minnesota, with Notes on its Identification and Taxonomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We report the first records of Pseudoanthidium nanum (Mocsáry) in Illinois and Minnesota in 2016 and 2018, respectively. This represents a relatively rapid expansion since P. nanum was first detected in New Jersey in 2008.

Tall trees and exotic herbs identified in pollen and nest materials of seven cavity-nesting solitary bee species in Australia

open access: yesFrontiers in Bee Science
IntroductionSolitary bees are important pollinators yet vulnerable to decline in resource-poor landscapes. Resources for solitary bees may be supplemented by land managers through targeted plantings, however, little is known about the specific plants ...

No evidence for environmental filtering of cavity‐nesting solitary bees and wasps by urbanization using trap nests

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2022
Spatial patterns in biodiversity are used to establish conservation priorities and ecosystem management plans. The environmental filtering of communities along urbanization gradients has been used to explain biodiversity patterns but demonstrating ...

Diversity of Flower-visiting Bees and their Pollen Loads on a Wildflower Seed Farm in Montana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
During a two-year survey on a wildflower seed farm in southcentral Montana, we collected ∼50 species of bees from 18 genera in sweep samples on cultivated wildflowers and weeds.
