  • Clear Plastic Bags of Bark Mulch Trap and Kill Female Megachile (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) Searching for Nesting Sites
    JOURNAL OF THE KANSAS ENTOMOLOGICAL SOCIETY 92(4), 2019, pp. 649-654 SHORT COMMUNICATION Clear Plastic Bags of Bark Mulch Trap and Kill Female Megachile (Hymenoptera: Megachilidae) Searching for Nesting Sites Casey M. Delphia1*, Justin B. Runyon2, and Kevin M. O’Neill3 ABSTRACT: In 2017, we found 17 dead females of Megachile frigida Smith in clear plastic bags of com- posted bark mulch in a residential yard in Bozeman, Montana, USA. Females apparently entered bags via small ventilation holes, then became trapped and died. To investigate whether this is a common source of mortality, we deployed unmodified bags of mulch and those fitted with cardboard tubes (as potential nest sites) at three nearby sites in 2018. We found two dead M. frigida females and five completed leaf cells in one of these bags of mulch fitted with cardboard tubes; two male M. frigida emerged from these leaf cells. In 2018, we also discovered three dead female M. frigida and three dead females of a second leafcutter bee species, Megachile gemula Cresson, in clear bags of another type of bark mulch. Both mulches emitted nearly identical blends of volatile organic compounds, suggesting their odors could attract females searching for nesting sites. These findings suggest that more research is needed to determine how common and wide- spread this is for Megachile species that nest in rotting wood and if there are simple solutions to this problem. KEYWORDS: Leafcutter bees, solitary bees, cavity-nesting bees, Apoidea, wild bees, pollinators, Megachile frigida, Megachile gemula The leafcutter bees Megachile frigida Smith, 1853 and Megachile gemula Cresson, 1878 (Megachilidae) are widespread in North America (Mitchell 1960; Michener, 2007; Sheffield et al., 2011).

Received: 28 July 2020; Accepted: 17 September 2020; Published: 20 September 2020 Simple Summary: Solitary bees are important pollinators in managed and wild ecosystems. Across the bee phylogeny, bees may forage on a single species of plant, few plant species, or a broad diversity of plants. During foraging, these bees are often exposed to microbes, and in turn, may inoculate the brood cell and pollen provision of their offspring with these microbes. It is becoming evident that pollen-associated microbes are important to bee health, but it is not known how diet breadth impacts bees’ exposure to microbes. In this study, we collected pollen provisions from the bees Osmia lignaria and Osmia ribifloris at four different sites, then characterized the bacterial populations within the pollen provisions with 16S rRNA gene sequencing. We found that diet breadth did not have large effects on the bacteria found in the pollen provisions.

The sting of the Aculeata or stinging wasps is a modifed ovipositor; its function (killing or paralyzing prey, defense against predators) and the associated anatomical changes are apomorphic for Aculeata. The change in the purpose of the ovipositor/sting from being primarily an egg laying device to being primarily a weapon has resulted in modifcation of its handling that is supported by specifc morphological adaptations. Here, we focus on the sheaths of the sting (3rd valvulae = gonoplacs) in Aculeata, which do not penetrate and envenom the prey but are responsible for cleaning the ovipositor proper and protecting it from damage, identifcation of the substrate for stinging, and, in some taxa, contain glands that produce alarm pheromones.

At the same time, growing concerns about declines of pollinator species raise the question of whether vector control practices might affect pollinator populations. We report the results of a task force of the North American Pollinator Protection Campaign (NAPPC) that examined potential effects of vector management practices on pollinators, and how these pro- grams could be adjusted to minimize negative effects on pollinating species. The main types of vector control practices that might affect pollinators are landscape manipulation, biocontrol, and pesticide applications. Some current practices already minimize effects of vector control on pollinators (e.g., short-lived pesticides and application-targeting technologies). Nontarget effects can be further diminished by taking pollinator protection into account in the planning stages of vector management programs.

  • Seasonal and Spatial Patterns of Mortality and Sex Ratio in the Alfalfa
    Seasonal and spatial patterns of mortality and sex ratio in the alfalfa leafcutting bee, Megachile rotundata (F.) by Ruth Pettinga ONeil A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Entomology Montana State University © Copyright by Ruth Pettinga ONeil (2004) Abstract: Nests from five seed alfalfa sites of the alfalfa leafcutting bee Megachile rotundata (F.) were monitored over the duration of the nesting season in 2000 and 2001, from early July through late August. Cells containing progeny of known age and known position within the nest were subsequently analyzed for five commonly encountered categories of pre-diapause mortality in this species. Chalkbrood and pollen ball had the strongest seasonal relationships of mortality factors studied. Chalkbrood incidence was highest in early-produced cells. Pollen ball was higher in late-season cells. Chalkbrood, parasitism by the chalcid Pteromalus venustus, and death of older larvae and prepupae , due to unknown source(s) exhibited the strongest cell-position relationships. Both chalkbrood and parasitoid incidence were highest in the inner portions of nests. The “unknown” category of mortality was highest in outer portions of nests. Sex ratio was determined for a subset of progeny reared to adulthood. The ratio of females to males is highest in cells in inner nest positions. Sex ratio is female-biased very early in the nesting season, when all cells being provisioned are the inner cells of nests, due to the strong positional effect on sex ratio.

These were sent to Roy Snelling at the los Angeles County Museum and tentatively identified as a member of the African subgenus Deranchylaeus . Unfortunately, with Mr. Snelling’s sudden passing last year, the specimens were lost, and with no additional ones available, it was uncertain whether the species was established. Recently, WTN rediscovered this species at several sites along the southeast coast between Ala Moana Beach Park and koko Crater, in company with the introduced car - penter bee Ceratina smaragdula . Reevaluation of it by one of us (HHD) identified it as Hylaeus strenuus (Cameron, 1897), which is described from Barrackpore, West Bengal, india. virtually nothing is known about it in its home range, possibly due in part to the poor original description—the type is a male, not a female as described, and does not match the text very well.

  • Decline of Six Native Mason Bee Species Following the Arrival of an Exotic Congener Kathryn A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Decline of six native mason bee species following the arrival of an exotic congener Kathryn A. LeCroy1*, Grace Savoy‑Burke2, David E. Carr1, Deborah A. Delaney2 & T’ai H. Roulston1 A potential driver of pollinator declines that has been hypothesized but seldom documented is the introduction of exotic pollinator species. International trade often involves movement of many insect pollinators, especially bees, beyond their natural range. For agricultural purposes or by inadvertent cargo shipment, bee species successfully establishing in new ranges could compete with native bees for food and nesting resources. In the Mid‑Atlantic United States, two Asian species of mason bee (Osmia taurus and O. cornifrons) have become recently established. Using pan‑trap records from the Mid‑Atlantic US, we examined catch abundance of two exotic and six native Osmia species over the span of ffteen years (2003–2017) to estimate abundance changes. All native species showed substantial annual declines, resulting in cumulative catch losses ranging 76–91% since 2003. Exotic species fared much better, with O. cornifrons stable and O. taurus increasing by 800% since 2003. We characterize the areas of niche overlap that may lead to competition between native and exotic species of Osmia, and we discuss how disease spillover and enemy release in this system may result in the patterns we document. International trade creates opportunities for plant and animal species to be intentionally or inadvertently intro- duced into novel ecosystems where they may interact with native species. One outcome of species introductions is the potential for competitive interactions with native species, especially those that are most closely related to the introduced species.
