Pollinator activity and flowering in agricultural weeds in Sweden
Ecology and EvolutionThe extent to which weeds in arable land are useful to pollinators depends in part on the temporal pattern of flowering and insect flight activity. We compiled citizen science data on 54 bees and hoverflies typical of agricultural areas in southern ...

PLoS ONE, 2019 Differences in the timing of exoskeleton melanization and sclerotization are evident when comparing eusocial and solitary bees. This cuticular maturation heterochrony may be associated with life style, considering that eusocial bees remain protected ...

Iso‐Tellurazole N‐Oxides Assemble Adaptively Folded Macrocyclic Dodecamers
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Te…O Chalcogen bonding links twelve molecules into a ring that wraps itself around molecular guests. ABSTRACT Self‐assembled macrocyclic dodecamers were found in the crystals of new pseudo‐polymorphs of iso‐tellurazole N‐oxides. These structures are formed by molecules connected by NTe…O chalcogen bonds and are folded in a pattern that defines 89–153 ...

Effect of feeds in developing the hypopharyngeal gland of nosema-free nurse bees for escorting queen honey bees (Apis mellifera) during export [PDF]
, 2009 In 2006, Japan was one of the markets that contributed to the 4 million dollars live bee sales in Australia. In 2007, the export of queen honey bee from Australia was suspended when Nosema apis was detected in the nurse bees that were escorting the ...

Long‐distance pollen transport mediated by migratory hoverflies
Ecography, EarlyView.Long‐distance animal migrations shape ecosystems by redistributing nutrients, connecting populations, and mediating ecological interactions. However, the ecological contributions of many abundant insect migrants remain poorly quantified. Hoverflies are among the most numerous migratory insects and highly efficient pollinators, suggesting that their ...

Solitary Bees for Orchard Pollination
, 1997 Contrary to our usual idea that bees• live in hives, with queens, workers, and drones, most bees cannot be hived, are not social, don\u27t store honey, and rarely sting. The introduced, European honey bee is a highly specialized exception, rather than a
