Species distribution is summarised for all species at the level of country (England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland and Isle of Man). New information The 601 native species represent an increase of 25 on the 1978 checklist, comprising mostly new discoveries. This increase is nearly balanced by the 23 species now presumed to be extinct in Britain and Ireland. Keywords Britain, Ireland, bees, ants, wasps, fauna © Else G et al.

  • Discovery and Description of the Hospicidal First Instar of EPEOLUS
    First instar of Epeolus americanus JESO Volume 52, 202 DISCOVERY AND DESCRIPTION OF THE HOSPICIDAL FIRST INSTAR OF EPEOLUS AMERICANUS (CRESSON) (HYMENOPTERA: APIDAE), A CLEPTOPARASITE OF COLLETES CONSORS MESOCOPUS SWENK (HYMENOPTERA: COLLETIDAE) T. M. ONUfeRKO* AND G. E. HUTCHINgs2 Beaty Centre for Species Discovery, Canadian Museum of Nature, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada kP 6P4 email, [email protected] Abstract J. ent. Soc. Ont. 52: –3 A host-cleptoparasite association is newly confirmed between the solitary bee Colletes consors mesocopus Swenk (Hymenoptera: Colletidae) and its cuckoo bee Epeolus americanus (Cresson) (Hymenoptera: Apidae). Females of E. americanus were observed entering the nests of C. consors mesocopus in June 2020 at a clay pit in Meadow Creek, British Columbia. Unearthed brood cells revealed four Epeolus first instars, one of which was DNA barcoded and thereby identified as E. americanus. The first instar of this species is for the first time described and imaged. Additionally, observations of nest-seeking behavior by E. americanus, a description of the host nest architecture, and brood cell contents are presented and discussed in the context of what is known from studies of other species of Colletes and Epeolus. Introduction The bee genus Epeolus Latreille (Hymenoptera: Apidae) consists exclusively of (insofar as is known) cleptoparasites of polyester (or cellophane) bees of the genus Colletes Latreille (Hymenoptera: Colletidae) (Onuferko et al. 209). As in all members of the entirely cleptoparasitic subfamily Nomadinae sensu Michener (2007), the first instars of Epeolus are hospicidal and characterized by long sickle-shaped mandibles, long (presumably sensory) labral tubercles, a prognathous and elongate sclerotized head capsule, and a pygopod to facilitate mobility (Rozen 989; Michener 2007).

    LOS GÉNEROS DE ABEJAS (HYMENOPTERA: APOIDEA: APIFORMES) DE ANTIOQUIA (COLOMBIA). Allan H. Smith-Pardo Rita Isabel Vélez-Ruiz Grupo de Investigación en Ecología y Sistemática de Insectos (GIESI) Museo Entomológico Francisco Luis Gallego (MEFLG) Facultad de Ciencias Agropecuarias Universidad Nacional de Colombia, Sede Medellín Prólogo Para muchas personas, la palabra abeja tiene relación principalmente con las abejas melíferas europeas o africanas, Apis mellifera, que se encuentran en todo el mundo como resultado de las actividades humanas. Esta, es sin lugar a dudas el insecto mas conocido en el mundo, siendo estudiada por siglos por personas interesadas en sus estructuras, su comportamiento, su genética y su fisiología así como su utilización comercial como fuente de miel, cera, jalea real y para la polinización de cultivos. Este libro en abejas del Departamento de Antioquia, Colombia da poca importancia a la abeja melífera porque existen en el mundo miles de especies de abejas (quizás cerca de 20.000), una de las cuales es la Apis mellifera. Unos pocos cientos de estas otras abejas, principalmente abejas sin aguijón (tribu Meliponini) viven en grandes colonias igual que lo hace Apis, sin embargo muchas de las especies de abejas son solitarias, pues no viven en colonias y carecen de castas (reina y obreras). No obstante, al igual que las abejas melíferas, dependen para su alimentación del néctar y el polen de las flores, y por lo tanto tienen el potencial de influenciar su polinización y la producción de semillas y frutos de muchos cultivos al igual que la reproducción de la mayor parte de la vegetación natural.
