Setting goals for pollinator gardens

open access: yesConservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract In recent years, declines in animal pollinators have stimulated tremendous interest in pollinator‐friendly gardening. There is a widespread notion that pollinator gardens are beneficial, but the specific capacity of pollinator gardens to improve biodiversity conservation and societal well‐being remains unclear.

Hurricanes lead to declines in taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional richness and shifts in moth community composition

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Disturbances play a central role in shaping biodiversity, influencing both community structure and ecosystem function. The responses of biodiversity to disturbance are inherently multidimensional, often leading to shifts in taxonomic composition, functional traits, and evolutionary dynamics within biological communities.

Phenotypic, Floristic, and Anthropogenic Drivers of the Pollen Niche of Amazonian Stingless Bees

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 57, Issue 3, May 2025.
The pollen diversity and composition collected by Amazonian stingless bees depend on their body mass, tree composition, and urbanization. Further, bees have been collecting fewer pollen types since the 1970s. ABSTRACT Stingless bees (Apidae: Meliponini) are major pollinators in the tropics, supporting key ecosystem services.

Competition for pollen deposition space on pollinators generates last‐male advantage

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 2, Page 555-566, February 2025.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many plants have precise pollen placement strategies, ensuring that large amounts of pollen are deposited on small and discrete areas of pollinators' bodies. This may lead to male–male competition if pre‐existing pollen (1) is smothered or displaced by pollen from ...
