Adaptation or ecological trap? Altered nest-site selection by Reed Parrotbills after an extreme flood

open access: yesAvian Research, 2019
BackgroundFloods and other extreme events have disastrous effects on wetland breeding birds. However, such events and their consequences are difficult to study due to their rarity and unpredictable occurrence.MethodsHere we compared nest-sites chosen by ...

A new host record for the cleptoparasite Irenangelus lucidus (Evans, 1969) (Hymenoptera: Pompilidae)

open access: yesEntomological Communications, 2021
We provide a new host record for the cleptoparasitic wasp Irenangelus lucidus (Evans, 1969) (Pompilidae: Ceropalinae). A single female emerged from a brood cell of the host species Auplopus militaris (Lynch-Arribalzaga, 1873) (Pompilidae: Pepsinae ...

A unique nest-protection strategy in a new species of spider wasp.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Hymenoptera show a great variation in reproductive potential and nesting behavior, from thousands of eggs in sawflies to just a dozen in nest-provisioning wasps. Reduction in reproductive potential in evolutionary derived Hymenoptera is often facilitated

Nesting and reproductive habits of the solitary bee Centris analis in trap nests under a tropical climate

open access: yesRevista Ciência Agronômica, 2019
Pollination is a key factor in global agricultural production, and there is a need to increase the number of bee species that can be bred for pollination in agriculture, such as the oil-collecting solitary bee Centris (Heterocentris) analis (Fabricius ...

Managing trap‐nesting bees as crop pollinators: Spatiotemporal effects of floral resources and antagonists [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, 2017
Abstract The decline of managed honeybees and the rapid expansion of mass‐flowering crops increase the risk of pollination limitation in crops and raise questions about novel management approaches for wild pollinators in agroecosystems. Adding artificial nesting sites, such as trap nests, can promote cavity‐nesting bees in agroecosystems, but ...

Studying the Nesting Biology of Golden Eagles by Use of Trap Cameras

open access: yesПернатые хищники и их охрана, 2023
Trap camera was installed in an active nest of Golden Eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) in Eastern Rhodopes, Bulgaria. The recordings encompassed 45 days in June and July and the camera took 12 900 photos, from the time when the single chick was ca. 32 days old
