Sociobiology, 2019 The fragmentation and habitat loss are the main causes of pollinators decline worldwide, however very little is known about the composition and distribution of neotropical pollinators along continuous micro-environments.

Animating blossom: Time‐lapse to encourage plant awareness in the YouTube era
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 5, Page 1572-1583, September 2026.Time‐lapse videos can effectively capture key traits of flower blossoms, such as color, 3D structure, and temporal changes, making them valuable complements to herbarium specimens and other botanical collections. Despite the abundance of such videos on YouTube, most provide no ecological and botanical insights.

Composition of Orchid Scents Attracting Euglossine Bees
Botanica Acta, 1991 AbstractFragrance composition of flowers from 101 plant species, especially orchids, were analyzed. Several compounds, including allo‐aromadendrene, β‐bourbonene, α‐copaene, α‐cubebene, 1,2‐dimethoxybenzene, 1,3,5‐trimethoxybenzene, epoxygeranyl acetate, 7,11‐epoxymegastigma‐5(6)‐en‐9‐one, two γ‐lactones, germacradienol, germacrene D, humulene, methoxy‐

Chemical niche differentiation among sympatric species of orchid bees [PDF]
Ecology, 2009 Male Neotropical orchid bees (Euglossini) collect volatile substances (fragrances) from flowers and other sources (e.g., decaying wood) and store them in specialized hind tibial pockets. The accumulated chemicals are later emitted during courtship display, presumably to lure conspecific females for mating.

Bioscience Journal, 2012 The Neotropical orchid bees have been the focus of several ecological studies in the last four decades, mainly due to the ease of attracting males of their species to synthetic baits that simulate floral fragrances.

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT The breeding systems of Lutruwita/Tasmania's threatened Epacris taxa are poorly known. Our main objective was to determine the pollinators of several endemic species and explore for relationships between pollinators, floral morphology, flowering time and habitat. The Epacris have limited variation in floral traits and exhibit generalist floral

Structural Colour in Bees (Hymenoptera: Anthophila) Is Linked to Climate and Latitude
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Environmental drivers frequently predict global patterns of colour diversity, but whether such patterns depend on the underlying colour mechanisms—pigments or microscopic structures—has scarcely been considered. Structural colour may have different functional properties that result in different associations with environmental variables ...
