This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Andrena, which is the largest genus in the Andrenidae, is a very important genus for the pollination of fruit trees. Andrena flavipes Panzer is one of the most common species observed in the study area and can continue the flight activity even under low temperature. In this study, the pollen collected by A. flavipes was determined. In addition, the potential to carry sweet cherry pollen of the aforementioned species was also researched. For the pollen preparates, the scopae of 34 females were used. As a result of the diagnosis studies, it was determined that A. flavipes species collected the pollens of 13 families and that the dominant pollen group belonged to the Brassicaceae. It was ascertained that A. flavipes collected sweet cherry pollen and that the sweet cherry flowers do not represent a primary pollen source, however. -

Herkogamy and Mating Patterns in the Self-Compatible Daffodil Narcissus Longispathus
Annals of Botany 95: 1105–1111, 2005 doi:10.1093/aob/mci129, available online at www.aob.oupjournals.org Herkogamy and Mating Patterns in the Self-compatible Daffodil Narcissus longispathus MOONICA MEDRANO1,*, CARLOS M. HERRERA1 andSPENCERC.H.BARRETT2 1Estacio´n Biolo´gica de Donnana,~ Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientı´ficas, E-41013 Sevilla, Spain and 2Department of Botany, University of Toronto, 25 Willcocks Street, Toronto, ON, Canada M5S 3B2 Received: 10 December 2004 Returned for revision: 20 January 2005 Accepted: 14 February 2005 Published electronically: 29 March 2005 Background and Aims Floral design in self-compatible plants can influence mating patterns. This study invest- igated Narcissus longispathus, a self-compatible bee-pollinated species with wide variation in anther–stigma separation (herkogamy), to determine the relationship between variation in this floral trait and the relative amounts of cross- and self-fertilization. Methods Anther–stigma separation was measured in the field in six populations of N. longispathus from south- eastern Spain. Variation in herkogamy during the life of individual flowers was also quantified. Multilocus out- crossing rates were estimated from plants differing in herkogamy using allozyme markers. Key Results Anther–stigma separation varied considerably among flowers within the six populations studied (range = 1–10 mm). This variation was nearly one order of magnitude larger than the slight, statistically non-significant developmental variation during thelifespanof individual flowers.Estimates of multilocus outcrossingrate for different herkogamy classes (tm range = 0Á49–0Á76) failed to reveal a monotonic increase with increasing herkogamy. Conclusions It is suggested that the lack of a positive relationship between herkogamy and outcrossing rate, a result that has not been previously documented for other species, could be mostly related to details of the foraging behaviour of pollinators. -

Flächenmindestgröße von 100 qm Nähe zu potentiellen Nistplätzen von Wildbienen möglichst in Weinbergsnähe Daueranlage der Einsaat – Erhaltung und Pflege mindestens 6 Jahre Keine intensive landwirtschaftliche Nutzung auf den Flächen, nur Flächen ohne Düngung und einmaliger später Mahd Pflege und Erhaltung gesichert: Dauerpflege ist gewährleistet (einmalige Mahd mit Abtransport) oder kann ggf. mit dem LEV vereinbart und abgestimmt wer- den. Ggf. kann hier auch von Seiten des LEV unterstützt werden. Checkliste zur erfolgreichen Ansaat auf Ihren Flächen: 1 Saatbettvorbereitung Das Saatbett entscheidet maßgeblich über den Begrünungserfolg. Die Oberfläche muss krümelrau hergestellt sein (z.B. Pflügen oder Grubbern, Eg- gen bzw. Einsatz von Kreiselegge). Möglich ist bei neu angelegten Böschungen auch eine krümelraue Überdeckung von Oberboden mit dem Bagger oder das Abziehen von Flächen mit einer Zin- kenschleppe. Ein Abwalzen der Flächen ist gut, aber nicht unbedingt erforderlich. Je besser die Samen mit dem Boden in Kontakt kommen, desto besser ist der Begrünungser- folg. Die Fläche muss möglichst frei von Unkräutern und unerwünschten dauerhaften Pflanzen sein. Die Grasnarbe muss nach dem Einsatz einer Bodenfräse abge- recht werden.

Bollettino dell’Associazione Romana di Entomologia, 65 (1-4) (2010): 385-434. Mario CoMba (*) e Livio CoMba GLi aPoiDEi aPiForMi DEL ParCo NaZioNaLE DEL CirCEo (Hymenoptera, Apoidea) iNtroDuZioNE Con ben oltre 1000 specie presenti, gli Apoidei Apiformi costitutiscono un gruppo ben diversificato sul territorio nazionale. Molte specie soffrono og- gi la frammentazione degli habitat e il progressivo impoverimento floristico degli ambienti naturali e seminaturali conseguenti alle attività antropiche (ad es.: Williams, 1982; Osborne et al., 1991; Westrich, 1996). Ciascuna specie è in maggiore o minore misura limitata nella sua distribuzione dalla presenza di flora adatta all’approvvigionamento di nettare e polline, componenti esclusi- vi della dieta. La “funzione” pronuba rende la conoscenza e la conservazione del gruppo essenziali in ogni progetto di tutela ambientale. L’importanza de- gli Apoidei è infatti largamente riconosciuta non solo per il miglioramento e il successo di diverse coltivazioni (ad es.: Corbet, 1987; Free, 1993; Michener, 2000) ma anche per il mantenimento dello stesso ambiente naturale (ad es.: Cor bet et al. 1991). Nonostante siano oggi disponibili numerosi compendi faunistici locali o re- gionali dedicati agli Apoidei Apiformi, sono pochi quelli che abbiano abbrac- ciato con una certa completezza tutto il gruppo (Alfken, 1938; Nobile, 1987- 1995; Nobile & Turrisi, 1996 e 1999; Nobile & Tomarchio, 1998a e 1998b; Comba, 2007; Comba & Comba, 1991-2005; Pagliano, 1988-1995; Piatti & Ricciardelli D’Albore, 2006). In passato, le ricerche nel Parco Nazionale del Circeo non hanno prodotto che isolate citazioni di reperti nell’ambito di inda- gini estese anche ad altri territori (Tkalců, 1960; Warncke, 1972; Lieftinck, 1980; Pagliano, 1988, 1992, 1994; Comba & Comba, 1991). -

Northern American Nectar Sources for Honey Bees
A honey bee collecting nectar from an rosaceous flower. The nectar resource in a given area depends on the kinds of flowering plants present and their blooming periods. Which kinds grow in an area depends on soil texture, soil pH, soil drainage, daily maximum and minimum temperatures, precipitation, extreme minimum winter temperature, and growing degree days. The plants listed below grow in USDA Hardiness zone 5. A good predictor for when a plant will bloom and produce nectar is a calculation of the growing degree days. Hopkins' Bioclimatic Law states that in North America east of the Rockies, a 130 m (400-foot) increase in elevation, a 4° change in latitude north (444.48 km), or a 10° change in longitude east (two thirds of a time zone) will cause a biological event to occur four days later in the spring or four days earlier in the fall. In botany, the term phenology refers to the timing of flower emergence, sequence of bloom, fruiting, and leaf drop in autumn. The classification in major or minor nectar source is very dependent on the agricultural use of the land. An agricultural crop such as canola or alfalfa may be a major or minor source depending on local plantings. Generally, the more diverse a forage area is, the better for a stationary apiary. Urban, suburban and areas not under cultivation provide more consistent warm-season nectar forage than areas that are heavily cultivated with only a few agricultural crops. The nectar sources from large cultivated fields of blooming apples, cherries, canola, melons, sunflowers, clover etc.
