In this context, intraspecific variability with respect to seed morphology (size, weight, and density) was assessed in two close Epipactis tremolsii Pau. populations sharing the same ecological conditions, except for the soil pollution distinguishing one of them. Larger and heavier seeds were found in plants growing on the heavy metal polluted site, while no differences in seed density were detected between seeds produced by plants growing on the contaminated and the control site. Moreover, seed coats and embryos varying together in their dimensions were described in the control population, while coats varying in their size independently from embryos were described in plants growing on the polluted site. Seeds from the two studied populations significantly differed in several parameters suggesting that intraspecific seed variability occurred in the case study.

Tis report reviews the European, National, and Regional catalogues of protected species, focusing specifcally on the Orchidaceae family to determine which species seem to be well-protected and where they are protected. Moreover, this examination highlights which species appear to be underprotected and therefore need to be included in some catalogues of protection or be catalogued under some category of protection. Te national and regional catalogues that should be implemented are shown, as well as what species should be included within them. Tis report should be a helpful guideline for environmental policies about orchids conservation in Spain, at least at the regional and national level. Around 76% of the Spanish orchid fora are listed with any fgure of protection or included in any red list, either nationally (about 12-17%) or regionally (72%). -

Relationship Between Floral Colour and Pollinator Composition in Four Plant Communities
Relationship between floral colour and pollinator composition in four plant communities Sara Reverté Saiz Màster en Ecologia Terrestre i Gestió de la Biodiversitat; especialitat en Ecologia Terrestre Jordi Bosch1 i Javier Retana1, 2 1 CREAF, Centre de Recerca Ecològica i Aplicacions Forestals, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra E-08193, Espanya 2 Unitat d’Ecologia, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Bellaterra E-08193, Espanya 16 de Setembre de 2014 The present study started on February 2014. I was provided with the database of pollinator censuses I needed for the study. My contribution to this work has been: 1) Conducting fieldwork along the flowering season to obtain the flower samples and also performing censuses to expand the database; 2) conducting flower colour measurements with the spectrometer; 3) definition of the objectives and methodology (with supervisors’ advice); 4) analysis and interpretation of results (with supervisors’ advice); 5) writing of the document (with supervisors’ advice). The manuscript has been formatted attending to the guidelines provided by the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B- Biological Sciences. 1 Title: Relationship between floral colour and pollinator composition in four plant 2 communities 3 4 Abstract 5 6 Pollinators use a variety of floral cues to locate resources, but the relative importance of these 7 different cues on pollinator foraging decisions is unclear. However, floral colour is undoubtedly one 8 of the most important, as evidenced in previous works revealing the importance of floral colour on 9 pollinator choices and determining flower visitor composition. Our purpose is to establish whether 10 there is a relationship between flower colour and pollinator composition in natural communities. -

Collateral effects of beekeeping: impacts on pollen-nectar resources and wild bee communities Anna Torné-Nogueraa,*, Anselm Rodrigoa,b, Sergio Osorioa, Jordi Boscha a CREAF, 08193 Cerdanyola del Vallès, Spain b Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, 08193 Cerdanyola del Vallès, Spain manuscript Accepted *Corresponding author. Tel.: +34 93 5814851; fax: +34 93 5814151. E-mail address: [email protected]. 1 Abstract 2 Due to the contribution of honey bees (Apis mellifera) to wild flower and crop pollination, 3 beekeeping has traditionally been considered a sustainable practice. However, high honey bee 4 densities may have an impact on local pollen and nectar availability, which in turn may 5 negatively affect other pollinators. This is exacerbated by the ability of honey bees to recruit 6 foragers to highly rewarding flower patches. We measured floral resource consumption in 7 rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) and thyme (Thymus vulgaris) in 21 plots located at different 8 distances from apiaries in the scrubland of Garraf Natural Park (Barcelona), and related these 9 measures to visitation rates of honey bees, bumblebees (Bombus terrestris) and other 10 pollinators. In the same plots, we measured flower density, and used pan traps to characterize 11 the wild bee community. Flower resource consumption was largely explained by honey bee 12 visitation and marginally by bumblebee visitation. After accounting for flower density, plots close 13 to apiaries had lower wild bee biomass. This was due to a lower abundance of large bee 14 species, those more likely to be affected by honey bee competition. We conclude that honey 15 bees are the main contributors to pollen/nectar consumption of the two main flowering plants in 16 the scrubland, and that at the densities currently occurring in the park (3.5 hives / km2) the wild 17 bee community is being affected. -

Abstract Background: Mycoheterotrophic plants are considered to associate very specifically with fungi. Mycoheterotrophic orchids are mostly associated with ectomycorrhizal fungi in temperate regions, or with saprobes or parasites in tropical regions. Although most mycoheterotrophic orchids occur in the tropics, few studies have been devoted to them, and the main conclusions about their specificity have hitherto been drawn from their association with ectomycorrhizal fungi in temperate regions. Results: We investigated three Asiatic Neottieae species from ectomycorrhizal forests in Thailand. -
