First report of the use of extrafloral nectaries of Bauhinia forficata Link (Fabales: Fabaceae) by Tetragonisca angustula Latreille (Hymenoptera: Apidae)

open access: yesRevista Chilena de Entomología, 2019
We report here for the first time the use of extrafloral nectaries of Bauhinia forficata Link by Tetragonisca angustula (Latreille, 1811). This behavior was observed in an urban area in southern Brazil during the afternoon between December 2018 and ...

Wasps Beyond Bees: Crop Species of Spondias (Anacardiaceae) Vary in Floral Scent and Attract Different Pollinator Taxa

open access: yesJournal of Applied Entomology, Volume 149, Issue 7, Page 1070-1083, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Spondias species are increasingly valued for their fruit production, which relies heavily on insect pollination. The flowers of these species are generalised, attracting a diverse array of insect visitors, including bees, beetles, flies, wasps and butterflies.

The genomes of two key bumblebee species with primitive eusocial organization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: The shift from solitary to social behavior is one of the major evolutionary transitions. Primitively eusocial bumblebees are uniquely placed to illuminate the evolution of highly eusocial insect societies.

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 ...

Multi‐Omic Analysis Reveals Population Differentiation and Signatures of Social Evolution in Tetragonula Stingless Bees

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 13, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Stingless bees in the genus Tetragonula are social insects with a fully sterile worker caste, and are therefore well‐placed to provide insights into the genomic changes associated with ‘superorganismal’ life histories. Here we assemble the genome of Tetragonula carbonaria and characterise the population structure and divergence of both T ...
