The Role of Landscapes and Landmarks in Bee Navigation: A Review. [PDF]
, 2019 The ability of animals to explore landmarks in their environment is essential to their fitness. Landmarks are widely recognized to play a key role in navigation by providing information in multiple sensory modalities. However, what is a landmark?

Shared leadership can promote success in collaborative research networks in ecology
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract While collaborative science is becoming the norm in ecology, many ecologists participating in collaborations are less aware of the body of research that studies the processes by which collaborative teams organize and communicate.

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 3, March 2026.The data suggest that the release of locally reared Osmia spp. is unlikely to interfere with the genetic structure of wild conspecifics. This contrasts with bumblebees, where the use of non‐local colonies has led to genetic introgression with local conspecific populations.

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Flowers with striking colours or scents are often considered to have an advantage in the competition for pollinators. However, if pollinators copy others to avoid exploration costs in changing environments, less attractive flowers may benefit from acquiring early ...

Differential effects of agricultural expansion on wild bee taxonomic and functional diversity
Functional Ecology, EarlyView.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Pollinators, especially bees, are in global decline, threatening biodiversity and food security. While intensive agriculture is a primary driver, its impact on bee functional diversity—particularly in the diverse Mediterranean region—remains understudied.
