Comparative molecular cytogenetics in Melipona Illiger species (Hymenoptera, Apidae)
Sociobiology, 2018 Cytogenetic studies in Melipona are scarce with only 24 species analyzed cytogenetically. Of these, six species had the rDNA sites physically mapped and characterized by Fluorescent in situ Hybridization (fish).

The deposition of anal excretions by Melipona favosa foragers (Apidae: Meliponinae): behavioural observations concerning the location of food sources [PDF]
, 2000 Melipona favosa consistently deposited anal excretions while foraging. Anal depositions were released more frequently and by more bees on artificial food sources at a greater distance from the nest.

Oxidative Photochemical Cyclisations to Access Spiroketals
Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, Volume 366, Issue 22, Page 4694-4701, November 19, 2024.Abstract The spiroketal moiety is an important substructure within many biological natural products. One method to access them is via the oxidative cyclisation of a pendant hydroxyl group on to a pre‐formed pyran. However applications of this methodology have been severely limited by requiring the use of toxic oxidants, such as lead (IV) tetraacetate ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.Acantholyda posticalis is notorious for causing serious damage to Pinus forests across the Palearctic region. Through genome‐wide searching, manual screening, and amplification trial, 56 microsatellite markers were developed for A. posticalis. Our study is the first to develop SSR markers for insects in family Pamphiliidae, representing an initial step

Wing buzzing as a mechanism for generating vibrational signals in psyllids (Hemiptera: Psylloidea)
Insect Science, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 1466-1476, October 2024.Employing simultaneous direct observation of wing movements with a high‐speed camera and recording with a laser vibrometer, we did not find support for the hypothesis that psyllids generate vibrational signals with stridulation. Instead, the spectral and temporal composition of the signals are consistent with simple wing buzzing (i.e., tremulation ...

Wing Phenotypic Diversity in Stingless Bees Genera (Apidae: Meliponini) from Ecuador Amazonia
Acta Biológica ColombianaNative stingless bees, Meliponini, are the only social bees that produce honey in addition to honeybees. These bees have been managed in meliponiculture and for crop pollination.
