Effectiveness of infrared sensor camera monitoring for detecting pollinator visits to Cremastra appendiculata var. variabilis in a temperate forest in Central Japan

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March 2026.
A 4‐year survey of Cremastra appendiculata var. variabilis pollinators was conducted using a commercially available sensor camera throughout the flowering period. Additionally, sensor cameras and interval photography were used simultaneously to compare the number of videos capturing bumblebees.

Floral Resources Used by Euglossini Bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Coastal Ecosystems of the Atlantic Forest

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
In spite of playing an important ecological role as pollinators of tropical ecosystems, orchid bees are still poorly known regarding their floral resources.

Chemical Fingerprinting of Spiranthes spiralis L. Methanol Seed Extract: Spectroscopic, Chromatographic, and Computational Approaches

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Spiranthes spiralis L. seed methanol extract was morphologically and chemically characterized using microscopy, FT‐IR, GC–MS, and in silico analyses. The extract exhibited high phenolic content and strong DPPH radical scavenging activity, while GC–MS identified 22 bioactive compounds with notable binding affinity toward the GPR52 receptor.

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‐

Energy metabolism in orchid bee flight muscles: carbohydrate fuels all [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2005
SUMMARY The widely accepted idea that bees fuel flight through the oxidation of carbohydrate is based on studies of only a few species. We tested this hypothesis as part of our research program to investigate the size-dependence of flight energetics in Panamanian orchid bees.

Mimicking orchids lure bees from afar with exaggerated ultraviolet signals

Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Abstract Flowers have many traits to appeal to pollinators, including ultraviolet (UV) absorbing markings, which are well‐known for attracting bees at close proximity (e.g., <1 m). While striking UV signals have been thought to attract pollinators also from far away, if these signals impact the plant pollinia ...

Results‐based approach for biodiversity management at the farm scale: proposal for a new method

The Journal of Wildlife Management, Volume 90, Issue 2, February 2026.
We propose in this article to operationalize the concept of adaptive management by testing a results‐based approach to biodiversity management on a research farm located on the French Atlantic coast. We describe the project design consisting of the identification of several target species with their quantified objectives and the building of dashboards ...

Pollination and plant reproduction in the Cerrado, the world's most biodiverse savanna

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 74-105, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The Brazilian Cerrado is a continental‐wide biodiversity hotspot and the most species‐rich savanna ecosystem in the world. The main aspect characterising this biodiversity is that the landscape is arranged as an intricate mosaic of different plant formations, including grasslands, savannas, and forests, each harbouring distinct but ...
