Long‐range pollen transport across the North Sea: Insights from migratory hoverflies landing on a remote oil rig

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study identifies pollen from over 100 plant species—including wildflowers, food and crops—carried by hoverflies alighting onto an oilrig 200 km off the coast during seasonal migrations. Analysis of their movements indicates a huge potential to enhance long distance gene flow between plants and increase pollination services.

Disentangling the influence of environmental conditions on sex determination in haplodiploid organisms

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
The authors unravel how environmental conditions influence sex determination and resource allocation in a haplodiploid bee species. Using high‐resolution field data, they show that individual sex allocation shifts with environmental conditions, while population sex ratio and individual resource allocation remain stable, highlighting the complexity of ...

From cities to refuges for pollinators: Urban practices for enhancing pollinator habitats in changing landscapes

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, EarlyView.
A framework for the support of pollinators in urban areas is developed here, based on five pillars: nesting, flower resources, artificial support, management and society acceptance, with additional key elements from science and society. Society should incorporate strategies for pollinators as in this framework by means of co‐planning with stakeholders,
