Wild bee diversity and land use: A case study in a mountain agroecosystem of the Serranía de Ronda, southern Spain

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Orchards supported the highest wild bee diversity and functional diversity, highlighting their role in maintaining bee communities in Mediterranean agroecosystems. Landscape heterogeneity positively influenced functional evenness and dispersion of wild bee communities, underscoring the importance of diverse landscapes for bee conservation. The presence

Estimating wild bee population size with validated distance sampling

Insect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Distance Sampling is a promising method to estimate population size but has never been validated on insects. We validated it on a honey bee population of known size. We applied Distance Sampling to three insular pollinators and found that estimates are consistent across days, match species phenology and reflect the expected influence of weather ...

Collating and validating indigenous and local knowledge to apply multiple knowledge systems to an environmental challenge: A case-study of pollinators in India [PDF]

, 2017
There is an important role for indigenous and local knowledge in a Multiple Evidence Base to make decisions about the use of biodiversity and its management. This is important both to ensure that the knowledge base is complete (comprising both scientific

Nocturnal Lepidopterans as Essential Pollinators of Aspidosperma pyrifolium (Apocynaceae), a Keystone Tree in the Caatinga Dry Forest

Journal of Applied Entomology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pollination is a key ecosystem service, yet most studies focus on diurnal interactions, often overlooking nocturnal pollinators such as hawkmoths and settling moths. In arid environments, nocturnal pollination plays a crucial role in maintaining native plant species of high biocultural value, as seen in the Caatinga dry forest.

Generalization for both diurnal and nocturnal pollination in the mass‐flowering desert geophyte Nerine laticoma (Amaryllidaceae)

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Both diurnal and nocturnal pollinators are important in the desert plant Nerine laticoma. Abstract The evolutionary limits to generalization in plant pollination systems are often determined by trade‐offs in which adaptations to one set of flower visitors reduces the effectiveness of another set of visitors.
