Trap-nests for stingless bees (Hymenoptera, Meliponini)

Apidologie, 2012
Most stingless bee species build their nests inside tree hollows. In this paper, we present trap-nest containers which simulate nesting cavities so as to attract swarms of stingless bees. Although regularly used by stingless bee beekeepers in Brazil, this technique to obtain new colonies has not yet been systematically studied.

Effects of location, direction, altitude, and placement of trap nests on the rate of trap-nesting of Osmia solitary bees

Journal of Asia-Pacific Entomology, 2015
Abstract Nest traps are one of the most common methods to study Osmia bees. To elucidate the optimal environmental conditions of nesting sites, we investigated the effects of location, direction, altitude, and sites of nest traps on the rate of trap-nesting Osmia spp.

Aculeate Hymenoptera (Hymenoptera, Aculeata) Inhabiting Trap Nests in Crimea

Entomological Review, 2019
Trap nests for aculeate Hymenoptera were exposed during 15 years (2002–2016) in 80 localities of Crimea. A total of more than 500 trap nests containing about 25 000 cavities were used. As a result, 6 895 nests of 97 species from 9 families of Hymenoptera were obtained: Pompilidae (5 species / 118 nests), Vespidae (27/1201), Ampulici-dae (1/6 ...

Spillover of trap-nesting bees and wasps in an urban–rural interface

Journal of Insect Conservation, 2014
A mismatch of resource availability in certain periods can lead to spillover of insects between habitats, resulting in temporal differences in insect diversity. Urban gardens are important anthropogenic habitats but it is unknown whether, when and why spillover of beneficial insects occurs between gardens and agricultural habitats.

The use of trap‐nests to support crop pollinators in agricultural areas

Ecological Research, 2022
Abstract Supporting and promoting invertebrate diversity within agricultural ecosystems has numerous benefits, including the provision of pollination services. Many insects, including wild pollinators, require floral resources for food and structural habitat for nesting.

Trap-Nesting Hymenoptera and Their Network with Parasites in Recovered Riparian Forests Brazil

Neotropical Entomology, 2017
Different aspects of human activities can cause environmental change that endanger species persistence, alter species distributions, and lead to changes in antagonistic and mutualistic interactions, whereas deforestation and flooding of riparian forest results in landscapes consisting of patchily distributed riparian forest fragments in a matrix of ...

Bee-Rustling on the Range: Trap-Nesting for Pollinators on Public Lands

Natural Areas Journal, 2017
A significant portion of world food supply depends on the action of pollinators, which for most crops are primarily domesticated and “wild” bees. Over 75% of pollinator value in the USA accrues through the actions of domesticated honey bees. However, the number of commercial honey bee colonies in the USA has been declining for seven decades due to ...
