Climate change and deforestation are suggested to be the main drivers of decline in
pollinators. Forest‐dependent species are expected to be the most affected and Euglossa …

There is concern about the worldwide decline of bees, in which genetic factors may play a
role. As populations of these haplodiploid insects suffer habitat fragmentation and …

Orchid bee species are important pollinators in the Neotropics. While male orchid bees are
known to have a close interaction with odor-rewarding flowers, orchid bee females are often …

The Neotropical savanna is characterized by a set of different phytophysiognomies
occurring in a wide expanse of Brazilian lands. Based on the known higher diversity of …

Euglossine bees were sampled in three different phytophysiognomies [Rainforest (RF),
Mixed Forest (MF) and Seasonal Semi-Deciduous Forest (SF)] of Brazilian Atlantic Forest …

The orchid-bee faunas (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Euglossina) of the three largest forest
remnants in the “Centro de Endemismo Pernambuco”, northeastern Brazil, namely Estação …

Males of Euglossa mandibularis were consistently captured in scent traps baited with β-
ionone in areas of Mixed Ombrophylous Forests or transition between this latter …

The fragmentation and habitat loss are the main causes of pollinators decline worldwide,
however very little is known about the composition and distribution of neotropical pollinators …

The sampling of orchid bees across different biomes provides an excellent opportunity to
analyze morphological variability in this group. We examined the morphological variation of …

Nowadays, the northern part of the Atlantic Rainforest of Brazil is largely destroyed and
forest remnants rarely exceed 100 ha. In a 118 ha forest fragment within a state nature …
