Trap-nesting bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) in forest fragments of the State of São Paulo, Brazil.
We studied the community ecology of trap-nesting bees in two forest fragments of the state of São Paulo, Brazil, during two years, utilizing bamboo canes and tubes made of black cardboard as trap nests. The traps were inspected once a month with an otoscope. One hundred and fifteen nests were obtained at Estação Ecológica de Paulo de Faria, Paulo de Faria (EEPF). These included nine species bel...
متن کاملQuantifying greenhouse gas flux in a restored tallgrass prairie; does chamber material matter?
Tallgrass prairie ecosystems play a vital role in the carbon cycle; their restoration may be an important component of mitigating future climate change. To quantify the biosphere-to-atmosphere exchange of greenhouse gases, enclosure based chamber systems are frequently used because they are simple and inexpensive to construct, and can be easily replicated in a variety of ecosystems. We tested f...

متن کاملPreliminary results of bowl trapping bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea) in a southern Brazil forest fragment
In recent years bowl traps have gained attention as a useful method for sampling bees and are now commonly used across the world for this purpose. However, specific questions about the method itself have not yet been tested on different regions of the globe. We present the preliminary results of bowl trapping in a Semidecidual Seasonal forest fragment in southern Brazil, including the test of t...
متن کاملPhylogenetic utility of the major opsin in bees (Hymenoptera: Apoidea): a reassessment.
Major opsin (LW Rh) DNA sequence has been reported to provide useful data for resolving phylogenetic relationships among tribes of corbiculate bees based on analyses of 502 bp of coding sequence. However, the corbiculate tribes are believed to be of Cretaceous age, and strong support for insect clades of this age from small data sets of nucleotide sequence data has rarely been demonstrated. To ...
