Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most up-to-date and authoritative resource on the biology and evolution of solitary bees While social bees such as honey bees and bumble bees are familiar to most people, they comprise less than 10 percent of all bee species in the world. The vast majority of bees lead solitary lives, surviving without the help of a hive and using their own resources to fend off danger and protect their offspring. This book draws on new research to provide a comprehensive and authoritative overview of solitary bee biology, offering an unparalleled look at these remarkable insects. The Solitary Bees uses a modern phylogenetic framework to shed new light on the life histories and evolution of solitary bees. It explains the foraging behavior of solitary bees, their development, and competitive mating tactics. The book describes how they construct complex nests using an amazing variety of substrates and materials, and how solitary bees have co-opted beneficial mites, nematodes, and fungi to provide safe environments for their brood. It looks at how they have evolved intimate partnerships with flowering plants and examines their associations with predators, parasites, microbes, and other bees. This up-to-date synthesis of solitary bee biology is an essential resource for students and researchers, one that paves the way for future scholarship on the subject. Beautifully illustrated throughout, The Solitary Bees also documents the critical role solitary bees play as crop pollinators, and raises awareness of the dire threats they face, from habitat loss and climate change to pesticides, pathogens, parasites, and invasive species.

Book excerpt: In Britain and Ireland there are about ten times more species of solitary bee than bumblebee and honeybee combined, yet the solitary bees tend to be ignored and we know much less about them. They are a fascinating, attractive and diverse group that can be found easily in a wide range of habitats, both urban and rural, and they are important as pollinators. Solitary bees provides an introduction to the natural history, ecology and conservation of solitary bees, together with an easy-to-use key to genera. Chapters cover: Diversity and recognition; Bee lives; Cuckoos in the nest; Bees and flowers; The conservation of solitary bees; Approaches to practical work; Keys to the genera of bees of the British Isles - Females and Males; and References and further reading.

Download or read book Bio-ecology of Stingless bees, Trigona iridipennis Smith. (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in GKVK campus: an overview written by Roopa A. N and published by Amazon Publishers, USA. This book was released on with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stingless bees/Dammer bees are the smallest of the honey producing bees. Trigona and Melipona are the most important geera of stingless bees. Trigona is the largest and most widely distributed genus, which incluse 130 species under ten sub-genera. the present studies were taken with the following objectives 1) to study nesting charateristics, biology and seasonal variations, 2) to study foraging behaviour of Trigona iridipennis Smith in comparison with Apis cerena indica, 3) to identity the major food sources of T. iridipennis and A. cerena, 4) to study pollination potentiality of stinglees bee T. iridipennis on certain crops. The total period required from oviposition to adult emergence was 53.30 days comprising 5.75, 12.70, 35.30 days for egg, larvae and pupal stages, respectively. The length of this period was 2.53 times more than that of A. cerana. The marked adults of T. iridipennis had a life span ranging between 80-87 days. The time spent by different species of honeybees in collection of pollen was maximum at 0800 hrs and for nectar from pistillate and staminate flowers was at 1600 hrs. The flower drop in control plot (89.50 %) was found to be significantly higher over other treatments. Maximum fruit set, fruit weight and fruit volume was recorded in open pollinated plot than T. iridipennis caged and control plots. T. iridipennis contributed for 61.00 per cent fruit set while it was only 10.50 per cent in control plot. The germination percentage was found significantly higher in the seeds of open and T. iridipennis pollinated seeds compared to seeds from control plot.

Download or read book Bee Conservation written by Lynn V. Dicks and published by Pelagic Publishing. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together scientific evidence and experience relevant to the practical conservation of wild bees. The authors worked with an international group of bee experts and conservationists to develop a global list of interventions that could benefit wild bees. They range from protecting natural habitat to controlling disease in commercial bumblebee colonies. For each intervention, the book summarises studies captured by the Conservation Evidence project, where that intervention has been tested and its effects on bees quantified. The result is a thorough guide to what is known, or not known, about the effectiveness of bee conservation actions throughout the world. Bee Conservation is the first in a series of synopses that will cover different species groups and habitats, gradually building into a comprehensive summary of evidence on the effects of conservation interventions for all biodiversity throughout the world. By making evidence accessible in this way, we hope to enable a change in the practice of conservation, so it can become more evidence-based. We also aim to highlight where there are gaps in knowledge. Evidence from all around the world is included. If there appears to be a bias towards evidence from northern European or North American temperate environments, this reflects a current bias in the published research that is available to us. Conservation interventions are grouped primarily according to the relevant direct threats, as defined in the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN)’s Unified Classification of Direct Threats.
