Observamos abejas euglosinas macho recolectando fragancias en 21 fuentes no florales en Centro y Sudamérica, lo que refuerza la hipótesis que estas fuentes desempeñan un papel importante en la biología de los perfumes de las abejas euglosinas. Un árbol de \(\it Protium\) proporcionó más del 50% de los perfumes para \(\textit {Eufriesea corusca}\) y fue
