Decoding bee cleptoparasitism through comparative transcriptomics of Coelioxoides waltheriae and its host Tetrapedia diversipes [PDF]
Scientific ReportsCleptoparasitism, also known as brood parasitism, is a widespread strategy among bee species in which the parasite lays eggs into the nests of the host species. Even though this behavior has significant ecological implications for the dynamics of several

Tetrapedia diversipes in Restricted Areas in Bahia, Brazil (Hymenoptera: Apidae)
Sociobiology, 2014 Tetrapedia species are solitary bees which collect floral oils, being restricted to tropical regions of the Americas. Information on forms of nesting has been little researched in the literature, requiring studies on the diversity and variability of ...

Diapause in a tropical oil-collecting bee: molecular basis unveiled by RNA-Seq [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2018 Background Diapause is a natural phenomenon characterized by an arrest in development that ensures the survival of organisms under extreme environmental conditions. The process has been well documented in arthropods. However, its molecular basis has been

The Cavity-Nesting Bee Guild (Apoidea) in a Neotropical Sandy Coastal Plain
Sociobiology, 2018 Some solitary bees establish their nests in preexisting cavities. Such nesting behavior facilitates the investigation of their life history, as well as the monitoring of their populations in natural, semi-natural and cropped habitats. This study aimed to
