Augmentation of managed populations of Osmia cornuta and O. rufa (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) in Southeastern Europe

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2006
We describe augmentation of managed populations of Osmia cornuta and O. rufa in the vicinity of Belgrade (Serbia). Annual augmentation of O. cornuta populations was more than five-fold during the six years of our study.

The genome sequence of the plain dark bee, Stelis phaeoptera (Kirby, 1802) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2023
We present a genome assembly from an individual female Stelis phaeoptera (the plain dark bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Megachilidae). The genome sequence is 301 megabases in span.

Bees feeling the burn

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 279-296, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Fire is a major form of environmental disturbance, and in recent years, due to anthropogenic climate change and anthropogenic land management, we are seeing increases in the frequency and intensity of fires. With bees being an important, diverse group of pollinators that is facing declines globally, understanding how they respond to fires is ...

A trait‐based framework to understand and predict the response of wild bee functional groups to anthropogenic landscapes

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 56-71, January 2026.
Wild bee functional groups consist of species that are grouped together based on their similarity in multiple nesting and foraging traits. These functional groups have their own specific association with suitable habitats and urban or agricultural landscapes.

Phylogenomics and biogeography of the cleptoparasitic bee genus Triepeolus Robertson (Hymenoptera: Apidae), with a revised subgeneric classification of Triepeolus and its sister genus, Epeolus Latreille Filogenómica y biogeografía del género de abejas cleptoparásitas Triepeolus Robertson (Hymenoptera: Apidae), con una clasificación subgenérica revisada para Triepeolus y su género hermano, Epeolus Latreille

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 1, January‐March 2026.
A subgeneric classification is proposed for Triepeolus—the second‐largest genus of cleptoparasitic apid bees in the world—and its sister genus Epeolus, with support from a newly presented dated phylogeny. Phylogenomic analysis based on ultraconserved elements revealed strong support for the monophyly of Triepeolus, which diverged from Epeolus sometime ...

A Deep Metagenomic Snapshot as a Proof‐of‐Concept for Resource Generation: Simultaneous Assembly of Host, Food, and Microbiome Genomes From Stingless Bee Larval Food

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study serves as a proof‐of‐concept, demonstrating that deep shotgun sequencing of a single complex sample—stingless bee larval food—can simultaneously generate multiple genomic resources. From this dataset, we assembled three genomes (a near‐complete bacterium, a draft host mitochondrion, and a fragmented plant chloroplast) with varying ...

Study on Floral Syndrome and Breeding System of an Endangered Species Rhododendron nymphaeoides

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
This study divided the flowering process of Rhododendron nymphaeoides into five periods and systematically investigated the floral traits, pollen morphology and viability, optimal solid media for in vitro pollen germination, storage temperature screening, pollen–ovule ratio and hybridization index, stigma receptivity, the effects of different ...

Pollination biology and reproductive ecology of critically endangered endemic Campanula teucrioides in western Anatolia

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2025, Issue 12, December 2025.
Campanula teucrioides Boiss. is a critically endangered species found in a single locality in western Turkey. Determining the population size of C. teucrioides and conducting reproductive biology studies are of great importance in determining the necessary strategy for the conservation of the species. The area where the plant distributed was determined
