Thermoregulation of water collecting honey bees (Apis mellifera).
Honey bees (Apis mellifera carnica, Apidae, Hymenoptera) visited a pond in order to collect water. During their stays at the pond the body surface temperature of water foragers was measured using contactless thermography. Irrespective of the ambient temperature (T(A)) which ranged from 13.6 to 27.2 degrees C, the water carriers reached thoracic temperatures of 36-38.8 degrees C (mean values of ...
متن کاملPollen Foraging Response to Brood Pheromone by Africanized and European Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.)
We examined the pollen foraging responses of Africanized and European honey bee colonies to hexane extractable compounds of Africanized and European larvae (brood pheromone). Brood pheromone was presented to broodless Africanized and European colonies equalized for numbers of bees, food stores and, empty comb space. The pheromone signiÞcantly increased the ratio of pollen to nonpollen foragers ...
متن کاملCharacterizing the Impact of Commercial Pollen Substitute Diets on the Level of Nosema spp. in Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.)
Western honey bee (Apis mellifera L.) populations face declines commonly attributed to pesticide, pathogen, and parasite stress. One way beekeepers combat these stressors is by providing supplemental protein diets to honey bee colonies to ensure adequate colony nutrition. However Nosema spp., a microsporidian parasite of the honey bee, is thought to be associated closely with a colony's nutriti...
متن کاملSucrose responsiveness and behaviour in honey bees (Apis mellifera L.)
In dieser Arbeit wird bei der Honigbiene (Apis mellifera L.) analysiert, wie sich die individuelle Empfindlichkeit für Zuckerwasserreize auf verschiedene Formen der Verhaltensplastizität auswirkt. Die Versuche klären insbesondere die Rolle des Belohnungsreizes Zuckerwasser beim assoziativen und nicht-assoziativen Lernen auf. In den Untersuchungen werden Bienen verschiedenen Genotyps, verschiede...
متن کاملThe foraging behaviour of honey bees, Apis mellifera: a review
Foraging behaviour is one of the distinctive behaviours of honey bees, Apis mellifera. This behaviour is the link between the honey bee colony and the ambient environment. Therefore, various in-colony and out-colony factors have an impact on this behaviour, and many studies have been employed to investigate these factors. Foraging behaviour is not advantageous only for the colony and for plant ...
