PANGIUM SP. LEAF EXTRACT AS BIOPESTICIDE ON BRASSICA OLERACEA PLANT IN NORTH SULAWESI PROVINCE, INDONESIA [PDF]
Pangium sp. has the potential to be developed as a biopesticide because it has the ability to inhibit the activity of several types of insect pests. In this study, pangium leaf extract and pesticide were applied to Brassica oleraceae cabbage farms; to ...

To provide pollinator nesting habitat, cut dead perennial stems in their first winter
Garden management practises need to consider stem‐nesting bees and wasps to avoid destroying active nests and important nesting materials. Volunteers collected samples of dead stems (in situ where they grew) in winter, spring, summer and fall as part of a participatory research project.

Observations on the Nesting of \u3ci\u3eCrabro Tenuis\u3c/i\u3e (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]
Three nests of Crabro tenuis were studied during June 1971-1972 in Oswego County, New York. Females constructed shallow but lengthy, multicelled nests in sand with the cells being built in clusters, sometimes in series. Females plugged the entrances with

Evolution of Peripheral Visual System in the Apoidea: A Role for Food Item Mobility?
Since larger compound eyes and ocelli altogether improve vision, one may expect that insects specialised in chasing very mobile resources possess such morphological optimisation. By analysing 77 species of bees and wasps, we have found that wasps had larger eyes, but not larger ocelli, than bees.

Influence of Tree Species on Frequency of Trap-Nest Use by \u3ci\u3ePassaloecus\u3c/i\u3e Species (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) [PDF]
Habitat selection by Passaloecus spp. based upon tree species used as stations for artificial nesting sites were studied. Data suggest that Passaloecus areolatus preferred Juglans and that P.

Abstract Mutualistic interactions between plants and pollinators are fundamental to biodiversity maintenance and ecosystem resilience, yet their dynamics across space and time in tropical dry forests have not been widely examined. We analyzed plant–pollinator networks across seasons and habitat types in the highly seasonal and fragmented dry forest of ...
