Planting native wildflowers improves vacant land as bee habitat in a post‐industrial city

Ecological Entomology, Volume 50, Issue 3, Page 538-551, June 2025.
Greening with native wildflowers in urban vacant land (pocket prairies) increases bee abundance and species richness in the post‐industrial city of Cleveland, Ohio, USA. Pocket prairies supported a similar bee abundance to Metropark grasslands in the surrounding landscape, but Metropark grasslands supported significantly higher bee diversity and ...

Host identity, nest quality, and parasitism strategy: influences on body size variation in parasitoid bees and wasps

Oikos, Volume 2025, Issue 6, June 2025.
Body size determines mobility and fitness across taxa in various ways. Yet, drivers of body size in higher trophic invertebrates, especially parasitoids, including intra‐ and interspecific variations, are poorly understood due to complex interactions between parasitoid behaviour, the environment and their hosts.

Looking to the past to inform the future: What eDNA from herbarium specimens can tell us about plant–animal interactions

Applications in Plant Sciences, Volume 13, Issue 2, March-April 2025.
Abstract Premise The importance of natural history collections in modern ecological and genetic research cannot be overstated. Herbarium specimens provide historical information that can be used to investigate community ecology, phenology, and population genetics. In this study, environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding and next‐generation sequencing were

Culturally valuable minority crops provide a succession of floral resources for flower visitors in traditional orchard gardens [PDF]

, 2014
Agricultural intensification typically has detrimental effects on pollinator communities, but diverse cropping systems that contain sequentially-flowering crops have the potential to benefit pollinators through the provision of additional floral ...

A survey on Apoidea bees (Insecta: Hymenoptera) and their associated mites in Fars Province, Iran [PDF]

Journal of Insect Biodiversity and Systematics, 2016
In this research 52 species of bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) have been reported from the northeastern Fars province, of which the species of Hylaeus punctus Förster and Hoplitis leucomelana Kirby were new records for Iran fauna. Among the material examined,

Native bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) and berry polycultures: Studying farmers’ motivations for diversification and the impact of mass floral resources on pollinator communities [PDF]

, 2017
Floral resource continuity is an important component in pollinator conservation. Mass blooms early in the season may bolster pollinator communities on sequentially flowering crops by creating a resource pulse in an agricultural landscape.
