Identifying environmental drivers which structure wild bee species assemblages appears
essential in a context of worldwide pollinator decline. During a two-year survey, we studied …

The diversity and abundance of wild bees ensures the delivery of pollination services and
the maintenance of ecosystem diversity. As previous studies carried out in Central Europe …

Across Europe conservation actions have been implemented to mitigate the decline of
pollinators in agricultural landscapes. However, recent concerns have appeared about their …

Maintaining the diversity of wild bees is a priority for preserving ecosystem function and
promoting stability and productivity of agroecosystems. However, wild bee communities face …

Recent reports of pollinator declines have stirred interest in investigating the impacts of
habitat exploitation on the conservation of pollinator and plant communities. An important …

Understanding biodiversity distribution is a primary goal of community ecology. At a
landscape scale, bee communities are affected by habitat composition, anthropogenic land …

Cities are socioecological systems that filter and select species, therefore establishing
unique species assemblages and biotic interactions. Urban ecosystems can host richer wild …

Urban areas consist of wide expanses of impervious surfaces which are known to negatively
affect insect biodiversity in general, but green spaces within cities have the potential to …

The spatial heterogeneity of urban landscapes, relatively low agrochemical use, and
species-rich floral communities often support a surprising diversity of wild pollinators in …

The decline of bees has raised concerns regarding their conservation and the maintenance
of ecosystem services they provide to bee-pollinated wild flowers and crops. Although the …
