The Trade in Medicinal Animals in Northeastern Brazil
Over the centuries, a significant part of the Brazilian fauna is widely sold, more specifically in retail stores or street markets. The objective was to characterize the sale of medicinal animals in five large northeast cities. Information about the sale of zootherapeutic items was obtained in the cities of Aracaju‐SE, Fortaleza‐CE, Maceio‐AL, Recife ...

Does beekeeping reduce genetic variability in Melipona scutellaris (Apidae, Meliponini)?
Many factors have contributed to reductions in wild populations of stingless bees, such as: deforestation, displacement and destruction of nests by honey gatherers, as well as use of insecticides and other agrochemicals. All of these can potentially affect the populational structure of native species.

A case of multiple mating in stingless bees (Meliponinae) [PDF]
In several stingless bee species many males aggregate in the vicinity of a nest when a virgin queen is present in the colony and is preparing for the nuptial flight. We report such male assemblage for Tetragonisca angustula.
