Stingless bees are important pollinators of wild plants and crops. The identity of stingless
bee species in Africa has not been fully documented. The present study explored the utility …

Abstract Aim The Neotropical Dry Diagonal (DD) is a corridor of distinct dry environments in
central South America. The main hypotheses suggest that these environments may have …

Stingless beekeeping, also known as meliponiculture, has gained increasing popularity in
many tropical and subtropical countries for its use in commercial pollination and high-value …

Tetragonisca angustula is one of the most widespread stingless bees in the Neotropics. This
species swarms frequently and is extremely successful in urban environments. In addition, it …

Tropical dry forests are increasingly threatened by human activities. In Northeast Brazil, the
Caatinga, an area of tropical dry forests surrounded by wetlands, is considered globally …

Abstract The Brazilian Cerrado biome stands out as a biodiversity hotspot, boasting a rich
flora and endemic species. However, human activities have significantly altered nearly 80 …

To characterize the populational diversity of Mourella caerulea, an endemic stingless bee
from the Pampa biome, we collected workers of the stingless bee Mourella caerulea from 24 …

In the present work, we explored multiple data from different biological levels such as
cuticular hydrocarbons, chromosomal features, and mtDNA sequences in the Neotropical …

Low genetic variability has normally been considered a consequence of animal husbandry
and a major contributing factor to declining bee populations. Here, we performed a …
