A global-scale expert assessment of drivers and risks associated with pollinator decline
Nature Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Pollinator decline has attracted global attention and substantial efforts are underway to respond through national pollinator strategies and action plans.

Global effects of land-use intensity on local pollinator biodiversity
Nature Communications, 2021 Pollinating species are in decline globally, with land use an important driver. However, most of the evidence on which these claims are made is patchy, based on studies with low taxonomic and geographic representativeness.

A systems approach reveals urban pollinator hotspots and conservation opportunities
Nature Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Urban areas are often perceived to have lower biodiversity than the wider countryside, but a few small-scale studies suggest that some urban land uses can support substantial pollinator populations.

Global Change Biology, 2019 The global increase in the proportion of land cultivated with pollinator‐dependent crops implies increased reliance on pollination services. Yet agricultural practices themselves can profoundly affect pollinator supply and pollination.

Land use and pollinator dependency drives global patterns of pollen limitation in the Anthropocene
Nature Communications, 2020 Land use change, by disrupting the co-evolved interactions between plants and their pollinators, could be causing plant reproduction to be limited by pollen supply.

Nature Communications, 2019 How insects promote crop pollination remains poorly understood in terms of the contribution of functional trait differences between species. We used meta-analyses to test for correlations between community abundance, species richness and functional trait

Mass‐flowering crops dilute pollinator abundance in agricultural landscapes across Europe
Ecology Letters, 2016 Mass‐flowering crops (MFCs) are increasingly cultivated and might influence pollinator communities in MFC fields and nearby semi‐natural habitats (SNHs).

Adventive Gryon aetherium Talamas (Hymenoptera, Scelionidae) associated with eggs of Bagrada hilaris (Burmeister) (Hemiptera, Pentatomidae) in the USA [PDF]
Journal of Hymenoptera Research, 2021 Bagrada bug, Bagrada hilaris (Burmeister) (Hemiptera, Pentatomidae), has become a major pest of cole crops (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, kale) in California since its arrival in 2008. In this study we documented parasitism of B.
