Comparing the Efficacy of Single and Multiple Visits by Honey and Solitary Bees on Sunflower Seed Production

Sociobiology
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) is an important oil seed crop with a considerable acreage of cultivated hybrids in Pakistan. Sunflower crops depend on insect pollination for seed setting, as it attracts diverse pollinator fauna, mainly due to pollen ...

Tall trees and exotic herbs identified in pollen and nest materials of seven cavity-nesting solitary bee species in Australia

Frontiers in Bee Science
IntroductionSolitary bees are important pollinators yet vulnerable to decline in resource-poor landscapes. Resources for solitary bees may be supplemented by land managers through targeted plantings, however, little is known about the specific plants ...

Foraging ecology and conservation of honeybees, bumble bees and solitary bees

, 2021
This thesis contributes to two inter-related fields of research: bee conservation and bee foraging ecology. The first focuses on solitary bee ecology, identifying forage and habitat requirements along with educating the general public on aspects of solitary bee behaviour to aid in the conservation of the studied species.
