We found a precipitous decline in abundance and richness throughout the 5 years of our study. Alpha diversity also declined throughout the study. Abundance, species richness and alpha diversity were significantly higher in the dry than in the wet season. There were no significant differences in the diversity, richness, or abundance between the canopy and understory. Our data contrast sharply with previous long-term studies of euglossine bees which showed stable populations. abundance / insect decline / species richness / tropical forest / pollinator 1.

  • The Arthropod Phylum Phyla a Major Groups of Organisms
    Lab 1: Arthropod Classification Name: _______________________________ Hierarchical Classification System Classification systems enable us to impart order to a complex environment. In biology, organisms may be grouped according to their overall similarity (a classification method known as phenetics) or according to their evolutionary relationships (a classification system known as cladistics). Most modern scientists tend to adopt a cladistic approach when classifying organisms. In biology, organisms are given a generic name (reflecting the genus of the organisms), and a specific name (reflecting the species of the organism). A genus is a group of closely related organisms. Genera which are closely related are grouped into a higher (less specific) category known as a family. Families are grouped into orders, and orders into classes. Classes of organisms are grouped into phyla, and phyla are grouped into kingdoms. Domains are the highest taxonomic rank of organisms. Domain Bacteria, Eubacteria, Eukarya Kingdom Plants, Animals, Fungus, Protists Phylum Cnidaria, Annelida, Arthropoda Class Insecta, Arachnida, Crustacea Order Coleoptera, Lepidoptera, Diptera Family Tipulidae, Apidae, Scarabeidae Genus Scaptia, Euglossa, Anastrangalia Species beyonceae, bazinga, laetifica Glossary of Phylogenetic Terms Phylogeny: interrelationships of organisms based on evolution Systematics: the study of the diversity of organisms, which attempts to organize or rationalize diversity in terms of phylogeny Taxonomy: the technical aspects of systematics, dealing with the formal description of species, establishing rankings of groups, and general principles of classification and naming Phylogenetic Tree (cladogram): a diagrammatic representation of the presumed line of descent of a group of organisms.

  • Pollinator Specificity and Seasonal Patterns in the Euglossine Bee-Orchid Mutualism at La Gamba Biological Station
    Acta ZooBot Austria 156, 2019, 171–181 Pollinator specificity and seasonal patterns in the euglossine bee-orchid mutualism at La Gamba Biological Station Santiago R. Ramirez The plant family Orchidaceae exhibits some of the most spectacular and intricate ad- aptations for insect pollination. Across the Neotropical region male euglossine bees provide pollination services to approx. 700 orchid species that have evolved scent pro- duction in exchange for sexual reproduction. Male orchid bees collect scents from flowers and other sources to concoct perfume mixtures that they use as pheromone analogs during courtship display. Although the pollination biology of some of these associations has been studied in detail for some orchid taxa, community-wide analyses of this mutualism are lacking. Here I present an analysis of the plant-pollinator affilia- tion patterns and phenology among scent-producing orchids and male euglossine bees based on 960 bee-orchid interactions obtained over the course of five years of sampling at La Gamba Biological Station (south-western Costa Rica). I identify a highly nested plant-pollinator network that is composed of 24 bee species and 17 orchid genera. Some orchid genera exhibit pronounced flowering seasonality, with most of the diver- sity of interactions taking place during the dry season (March-April) and few orchid taxa blooming throughout the year. The architecture of the plant-pollinator network also revealed a substantial degree of pollinator sharing among orchid genera, suggest- ing that distantly related lineages independently converged on the use of similar pol- linator bee assemblages.

  • Hymenoptera: Apidae), with Distributional Modeling of Adventive Euglossines
    Comparative Genital Morphology, Phylogeny, and Classification of the Orchid Bee Genus Euglossa Latreille (Hymenoptera: Apidae), with Distributional Modeling of Adventive Euglossines BY ©2010 Ismael Alejandro Hinojosa Díaz Submitted to the graduate degree program in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Chairperson Michael S. Engel Charles D. Michener Edward O. Wiley Kirsten Jensen J. Christopher Brown Date Defended: November 10, 2010 The Dissertation Committee for Ismael Alejandro Hinojosa Díaz certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Comparative Genital Morphology, Phylogeny, and Classification of the Orchid Bee Genus Euglossa Latreille (Hymenoptera: Apidae), with Distributional Modeling of Adventive Euglossines Chairperson Michael S. Engel Date approved: November 22, 2010 ii ABSTRACT Orchid bees (tribe Euglossini) are conspicuous members of the corbiculate bees owing to their metallic coloration, long labiomaxillary complex, and the fragrance-collecting behavior of the males, more prominently (but not restricted) from orchid flowers (hence the name of the group). They are the only corbiculate tribe that is exclusively Neotropical and without eusocial members. Of the five genera in the tribe, Euglossa Latreille is the most diverse with around 120 species. Taxonomic work on this genus has been linked historically to the noteworthy secondary sexual characters of the males, which combined with the other notable external features, served as a basis for the subgeneric classification commonly employed. The six subgenera Dasystilbe Dressler, Euglossa sensu stricto, Euglossella Moure, Glossura Cockerell, Glossurella Dressler and Glossuropoda Moure, although functional for the most part, showed some intergradations (especially the last three), and no phylogenetic evaluation of their validity has been produced.

Acad. Colomb. Cienc. 31(120): 415-423, 2007. ISSN 0370-3908. Knowledge on the geographical distribution of orchid bee species in Colombia and most of the Neotropics depends on monitoring and sample methodologies implemented and facilities to access diverse natural regions. In addition, for research on distribution of species, the taxonomic impediment is a problem for the identification and confirmation of some species, although the tribe Euglossini presents a relatively well developed taxonomy. Herein is presented the first record of Eufriesea bare in Colombia, an orchid bee species known only the Venezuelan Amazonian region; as well as the distribution of three euglossine species of the genus Euglossa.

Entre ellos, las abejas constituyen un eslabón esencial en la polinización de angiospermas que durante millones de años desarrollaron estrategias cada vez más específicas para atraerlas. De esta forma se establece una relación muy fuerte entre am- bos, planta-polinizador, y cuanto mayor es la especialización, tal como sucede en un gran número de especies de orquídeas y cactáceas entre otros grupos, ésta se torna más vulnerable ante cambios ambientales naturales o producidos por el hombre. De esta forma, el estudio de este tipo de interacciones resulta cada vez más importante en vista del incremento de áreas perturbadas o modificadas de manera antrópica en las cuales la fauna y flora queda expuesta a adaptarse a las nuevas condiciones o desaparecer.

Journal of Hymenoptera Research 30: 1–6. doi: 10.3897/JHR.30.4733 The Journal of Hymenoptera Research (JHR) is published by the International Society of Hymenopterists. It is devoted to the study of all aspects of Hymenoptera and cov- ers a broad range of research disciplines, including biology, morphology, behaviour, ecology, genetics, systematics and taxonomy. The journal was launched in 1992 and for most of its existence was published as two issues per annual volume. In 2011, after publication of 19 volumes, the Society decided to move from restricted to open access, with Pensoft as a publisher. This move had several important consequences for the publication and dissemination of information about Hymenoptera. The new publication model has replaced the traditional schedule of two issues per year with a more flexible one allowing publication of unlimited numbers of issues, depending only on the availability of publishable content.
