As a follow-up to the observations of Charles Robertson from 1884 to 1916, we revisited the Carlinville, Illinois, area between 18 August 1970 and 13 September1972 to sample and identify bee species (Hymenoptera: Apoidea). We concentrated on collecting nonparasitic bees (and excluded Apis and Bombus) visiting 24 plant species that bloomed at various times of the year, and upon which Charles Robertson found many bee species. For example, we collected most intensively on spring-blooming Claytonia virginica and fall-blooming Aster pilosus, upon which Robertson reported 58 and 90 bee visitors, respectively. Bees were also collected on an opportunistic basis at some other plants. We updated the species names used by Robertson for revisions and synonymies. This...

Causes and Extent of Declines among Native North American Invertebrate Pollinators: Detection, Evidence, and Consequences

Cane, James H; USDA-ARS; jcane@biology.usu.edu; Tepedino, Vincent J; USDA-ARS; andrena@biology.usu.edu.

Ecosystem health and agricultural wealth in North America depend on a particular invertebrate fauna to deliver pollination services. Extensive losses in pollinator guilds and communities can disrupt ecosystem integrity, a circumstance that today forces most farmers to rely on honey bees for much fruit and seed production. Are North America's invertebrate pollinator faunas already widely diminished or currently threatened by human activities? How would we know, what are the spatiotemporal scales for detection, and which anthropogenic factors are responsible? Answers to these questions were considered by participants in a workshop sponsored by the National Center for Ecological Analysis and Synthesis in October of 1999, and these questions form the nucleus...

Variation in Native Bee Faunas and its Implications for Detecting Community Changes

Williams, Neal M; University of Calgary; nwilliam@ucalgary.ca; Minckley, Robert L; University of Utah; minckley@biology.utah.edu; Silveira, Fernando A; Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais; fernando@mono.icb.ufmg.br.

Changes in flower-visiting insect populations or communities that result from human impacts can be documented by measuring spatial or temporal trends, or by comparing abundance or species composition before and after disturbance. The level of naturally occurring variation in populations and communities over space and time will dictate the sampling effort required to detect human-induced changes. We compiled a set of existing surveys of the bee faunas of natural communities from around the world to examine patterns of abundance and richness. We focused on a subset of these studies to illustrate variation in bee communities among different sites and within sites over different spatial and temporal scales. We used examples from our compilation and other...

Habitat Fragmentation and Native Bees: a Premature Verdict?

Cane, James H; USDA-ARS; jcane@biology.usu.edu.

Few studies directly address the consequences of habitat fragmentation for communities of pollinating insects, particularly for the key pollinator group, bees (Hymenoptera: Apiformes). Bees typically live in habitats where nesting substrates and bloom are patchily distributed and spatially dissociated. Bee studies have all defined habitat fragments as remnant patches of floral hosts or forests, overlooking the nesting needs of bees. Several authors conclude that habitat fragmentation is broadly deleterious, but their own data show that some native species proliferate in sampled fragments. Other studies report greater densities and comparable diversities of native bees at flowers in some fragment size classes relative to undisrupted habitats, but find...

ABSTRACT The family Convolvulaceae is widely distributed in tropical regions, mainly in open areas. Convolvulaceae flowers are characterized mainly by being beautiful and ephemeral, attracting many flower visitors that belong to different taxonomic groups. This work aimed to investigate the interactions between insects and flowers of Jacquemontia bracteosa (Convolvulaceae), focusing on the pollination efficiency, in an area in the Brazilian semiarid. From November 2011 to October 2012, floral biology of J. bracteosa was investigated as well as the flower visit frequency, behavior, and morphology of floral visitors. The flowers of J. bracteosa are white, showy and open early in the morning, lasting less than 12 hours, with fruiting occurring both by selfing...

De gouden kegelbij Coelioxys aurolimbata is uit ons land recent alleen bekend uit de zuidelijke helft van Limburg. Vóór 1960 kwam deze parasiet van de lathyrusbij Chalicodoma ericetorum ook in het rivierengebied voor. In juli van dit jaar werd de gouden kegelbij gevangen in Duiven. Mogelijk is dit de voorbode van een herovering van het rivierengebied door deze bedreigde soort.

Op 17 juni 2009 werd een mannetje van Megachile rotundata gevangen in Groesbeek, Gelderland. Dit is de eerste melding van deze soort in Nederland. Omdat de bij onder andere op luzerne en verwante planten vliegt wordt als Nederlandse naam luzernebehangersbij voorgesteld. De soort komt vooral voor in Midden- en Zuid-Europa, maar is onder andere in Amerika geïntroduceerd voor de bestuiving van luzerne. In dit artikel wordt ingegaan op de herkenning en leefwijze, de huidige verspreiding en de vindplaats in Nederland.

Tot voor kort waren acht soorten kegelbijen Coelioxys uit Nederland bekend. Sinds 2010 kan daar een negende soort aan toegevoegd worden: Coelioxys afra, de schubhaarkegelbij. Op 26 juni werden twee mannetjes gevangen op de Bergerhei in Noord-Limburg. Kegelbijen zijn zogenaamde broedparasieten of koekoeksbijen, die hun eitjes in nesten van andere bijensoorten leggen. De meeste soorten parasiteren bij behangersbijen Megachile, enkele soorten ook bij sachembijen Anthophora en metselbijen Osmia. Coelioxys afra parasiteert waarschijnlijk bij twee gastheren, het zilveren fluitje Megachile leachella en de rotsbehangersbij M. pilidens, die beide in Nederland voorkomen.

De doornkaakzandbij ziet er in het voorjaar een beetje anders uit dan in de zomer. Daarom worden de voorjaarsdieren door sommigen tot een andere soort beschouwd dan de zomerdieren. Uit Nederland zijn slechts drie exemplaren bekend: twee uit het voorjaar en één uit de zomer. Toevallig komen alle exemplaren uit hetzelfde gebied. Of is dit geen toeval?

In the current literature, information is scarce on which part of the adult insect body is suitable for isolation of genomic DNA for genetic analysis based on DNA-markers. In this study, we evaluated RAPD profiles generated from total genomic DNA isolated from distinct body parts (head, legs, thorax + wings and abdomen) of 12 males of Euglossa pleosticta Dressler. From the total of bands analyzed, 9.0% did not show reproducibility. Percent variations of bands in each body segment were: 1.1% (head); 0.4% (legs); 0.8% (thorax/wings) and 6.7% (abdomen). The much higher variation (chi2one sample = 10.27; df = 1; P < 0.01) in the RAPD profiles obtained by using DNA isolated from abdomen of the euglossine males suggests that this body part of adult insects...

The genetic RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) markers have been used successfully in taxonomical studies of several groups of organisms. In the present study these molecular markers were used to analyze the genetic similarity among eighteen males of Euglossa truncata Rebêlo & Moure exhibiting variations in two morphological characters (colour of the antennal scape and metaepisternal hairs) which are frequently used to identify this species of euglossine bee. The twelve primers used in the RAPD analysis amplified 127 loci, of which 40 (31.5%) were polymorphic, showing some variation among the individuals. The coefficients of genetic similarity among the individuals ranged from 0.79 to 0.95, indicating a rather high genetic similarity among the...
