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. -

A Baseline Invertebrate Survey of the Ken Hill Estate, 2019
A baseline invertebrate survey of the Ken Hill Estate, 2019 Graeme Lyons February 2020 Fig. 1. The nationally rare Breckland Leather Arenocoris waltlii is listed as Critically Endangered 0 – Summary The Ken Hill Estate plan to rewild a large area of some 400 ha of their Estate during 2019 and 2020. The summer of 2019 was the last crop for much of this area and as such, the 2019 survey season was an exciting opportunity to collect baseline data before any changes were made to the site. The author was commissioned to carry out a wide range of surveys in 2019, including this baseline invertebrate survey. A methodology used by the author to monitor other rewilding sites nationally was adopted based upon surveying eight fields/sections, six times from April to September. The sections needed to represent the site geographically, representationally in terms of habitats and crops and make a realistic circular route. Each section was recorded for 30 minutes using the method pertinent to the season. Specimens were taken and identified at the microscope. Eight species lists were produced and an overall site species list was also produced. All species with conservation status were recorded and species accounts given. Any species recorded between section or on different surveys were also recorded. A total of 1895 records were made during the six visits comprised of 811 species, 50 species of which had conservation status (6.2%). The total number of species was exceptionally rich, the highest figure of any six-visit invertebrate survey carried out by the author. The proportion of species with status was comparable to other rewilding surveys but these were carried out some 15 years after rewilding began. -
Bees and Wasps of the East Sussex South Downs
A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 A SURVEY OF THE BEES AND WASPS OF FIFTEEN CHALK GRASSLAND AND CHALK HEATH SITES WITHIN THE EAST SUSSEX SOUTH DOWNS Steven Falk, 2011 Abstract For six years between 2003 and 2008, over 100 site visits were made to fifteen chalk grassland and chalk heath sites within the South Downs of Vice-county 14 (East Sussex). This produced a list of 227 bee and wasp species and revealed the comparative frequency of different species, the comparative richness of different sites and provided a basic insight into how many of the species interact with the South Downs at a site and landscape level. The study revealed that, in addition to the character of the semi-natural grasslands present, the bee and wasp fauna is also influenced by the more intensively-managed agricultural landscapes of the Downs, with many species taking advantage of blossoming hedge shrubs, flowery fallow fields, flowery arable field margins, flowering crops such as Rape, plus plants such as buttercups, thistles and dandelions within relatively improved pasture. Some very rare species were encountered, notably the bee Halictus eurygnathus Blüthgen which had not been seen in Britain since 1946. This was eventually recorded at seven sites and was associated with an abundance of Greater Knapweed. The very rare bees Anthophora retusa (Linnaeus) and Andrena niveata Friese were also observed foraging on several dates during their flight periods, providing a better insight into their ecology and conservation requirements. -
Bee-Plant Networks: Structure, Dynamics and the Metacommunity Concept
Ber. d. Reinh.-Tüxen-Ges. 28, 23-40. Hannover 2016 Bee-plant networks: structure, dynamics and the metacommunity concept – Anselm Kratochwil und Sabrina Krausch, Osnabrück – Abstract Wild bees play an important role within pollinator-plant webs. The structure of such net- works is influenced by the regional species pool. After special filtering processes an actual pool will be established. According to the results of model studies these processes can be elu- cidated, especially for dry sandy grassland habitats. After restoration of specific plant com- munities (which had been developed mainly by inoculation of plant material) in a sandy area which was not or hardly populated by bees before the colonization process of bees proceeded very quickly. Foraging and nesting resources are triggering the bee species composition. Dis- persal and genetic bottlenecks seem to play a minor role. Functional aspects (e.g. number of generalists, specialists and cleptoparasites; body-size distributions) of the bee communities show that ecosystem stabilizing factors may be restored rapidly. Higher wild-bee diversity and higher numbers of specialized species were found at drier plots, e.g. communities of Koelerio-Corynephoretea and Festuco-Brometea. Bee-plant webs are highly complex systems and combine elements of nestedness, modularization and gradients. Beside structural com- plexity bee-plant networks can be characterized as dynamic systems. This is shown by using the metacommunity concept. Zusammenfassung: Wildbienen-Pflanzenarten-Netzwerke: Struktur, Dynamik und das Metacommunity-Konzept. Wildbienen spielen eine wichtige Rolle innerhalb von Bestäuber-Pflanzen-Netzwerken. Ihre Struktur wird vom jeweiligen regionalen Artenpool bestimmt. Nach spezifischen Filter- prozessen bildet sich ein aktueller Artenpool. -

Species-Specific Foraging Strategies of the Syntoplcal and Synchronous Bees Panurgus Calcaratus (SCOPOLI, 1763) and Dasypoda Hirtipes (Fabricius), 1793

Berlin ISSN 0005 - 805X 50 (2000) 1 S. 1 7 9 -1 9 1 11.04.2000 Species-specific foraging strategies of the syntoplcal and synchronous bees Panurgus calcaratus (SCOPOLI, 1763) and Dasypoda hirtipes (Fabricius), 1793 (Hymenoptera: Apidae) With 4 figures E v a -M a r ia L e v e r m a n n , In g e B isc h o ff u n d T h o m a s W a g n e r Summary Two ground-nesting, oligolectic bee species, Panurgus calcaratus (SCOPOLI, 1763) and Dasypoda hir tipes (Fabricius, 1793), which are syntopical and synchronous, were studied in the Wahner Heide Nature Reserve (Rhineland, Germany). To study mechanisms of ecological separation or niche differen tiation the species-specific seasonal and diurnal rhythms and the foraging strategies were examined. In addition to provisioning behaviour, their oligolecty was examined by analysing pollen samples from females after flower-visiting and by observations of the bees on their pollen sources. Both species exclusively visit yellow, photonastic liguliflorous Asteraceae as pollen sources, prefer to construct their nests on sandy soils with poor vegetation and are active from the beginning of July until the end of August. Analysed samples show pollen grains belonging to yellow liguliflorous Asteraceae only and there was no specialisation within the oligolecty on certain plant species. Collection of pollen is limited by the photonastic flowers of the pollen sources, and the bee activity is mainly influenced by climatic factors like light intensity, cloudcover, and air-temperature. The diurnal activity period o f D asypoda hir tipes is much longer and this species is active at lower temperatures. -
