Cavity-nesting bees are enigmatic because they are difficult to observe in the wild, hence
trap-nests (man-made cavities) provide the means by which these bees may be studied …

Although bees have been demonstrated to be abundant and species-rich in cities, several
studies pointed out that oligolectic species are scarce in those urban landscapes. Oligolectic …

Hoem Thavry, Julien Cappelle, Sara Bumrungsri, Lim Thona, and Neil M. Furey (2017) The
importance of the cave nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea as a pollinator of economically …

Context The process of forest fragmentation determines landscapes with isolated forest
patches immersed in a distinct matrix. This process may hinder pollinator movement …

We identified the food niche breadth of two sympatric species of oil-collecting bees, Centris
(Heterocentris) analis (Fabricius, 1804) and Centris (Hemisiella) tarsata Smith, 1874, based …

This study aimed to characterize the importance of the sources of floral resource used by
Centris analis to provision nests in acerola orchards (the West Indian cherry, Malpighia …

Pollination is an ecosystem service sustained by a differentiated use of resources among
sympatric species. The bee size can influence the similarity in the use of resources, and …

The knowledge on plant species used for the collection of floral resources is crucial to
understanding interactions between plants and bees. The aim of the present study was to …

Studying bee nests can enlighten our understanding of feeding specialization and
phylogenetic relationships of bees. We studied the nesting and feeding habits of …

The first immature description for a South American species of the genus Chlorota
Burmeister, 1844 (Melolonthidae: Rutelinae) is presented. The last larval instar and female …
