Honey bee introductions displace native bees and decrease pollination of a native wildflower

Ecology, 2023
AbstractIntroduced species can have cascading effects on ecological communities, but indirect effects of species introductions are rarely the focus of ecological studies. For example, managed honey bees (Apis mellifera) have been widely introduced outside their native range and are increasingly dominant floral visitors. Multiple studies have documented

Effects of stings of Australian native bees

Medical Journal of Australia, 1988
Five cases of stings by native bees are reported. The reactions were various and include a fatality as a result of the sting of a presumed Lasioglossum sp. (Halictidae). The effects of stings from Lasioglossum spp., Homalictus dotatus (Cockerell) (Halictidae), and Euryglossa cf adelaidae Cockerell (Colletidae) are described.

The Conservation of Native Honey Bees Is Crucial

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 2019
Recent studies have emphasized the role of the western honey bee, Apis mellifera, as a managed agricultural species worldwide, but also as a potential threat to endangered wild pollinators. This has resulted in the suggestion that honey bees should be regulated in natural areas to conserve wild pollinators.

Native Mason Bees Decline in the Wake of Non-Native Mason Bee Introductions

2021
In the Eastern United States, two mason bee species from Asia have become recently established. The Japanese horn-faced bee, Osmia cornifrons Radoszkowski 1887, was intentionally introduced from Japan by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in the 1970’s for crop pollination services.

ALIEN BUMBLE BEE AFFECTS NATIVE PLANT REPRODUCTION THROUGH INTERACTIONS WITH NATIVE BUMBLE BEES

Ecology, 2008
The invasive alien bumble bee Bombus terrestris may hinder the reproduction of native plants that have established specialized pollination systems with native bumble bees. To test this hypothesis, we examined the visitation frequency and behavior of native and alien bumble bee species and resultant seed production in Corydalis ambigua, a native plant ...
