Overwintering Honey Bee Colonies: Effect of Worker Age and Climate on the Hindgut Microbiota
Insects, 2021 Honey bee overwintering health is essential to meet the demands of spring pollination. Managed honey bee colonies are overwintered in a variety of climates, and increasing rates of winter colony loss have prompted investigations into overwintering ...

The impact of temperature on the reproductive development, body condition and mortality of autumn migrating monarch butterflies in the laboratory [PDF]
Royal Society Open ScienceOverwintering populations of the monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus, have been in decline for the past 30 years. Several hypotheses for the decline have been proposed, including summer and winter habitat loss and migration mortality due to non-senescing
