Like most bees,the ground nesting Anthophora squammulosa bees(花条蜂) live alone.The females lay their eggs in little underground nests and then head out to search for food to feed their developing larvae(幼虫).This process usually takes place in environments with plenty of plants,to insure ...

Insect pollinators are threatened by multiple environmental stressors, including pesticide exposure. Despite being important pollinators, solitary ground-nesting bees are inadequately represented by pesticide risk assessments reliant almost exclusively o
Nesting activity of Centris aenea Lepeletier, 1841 was studied in two Brazilian habitats, Caatinga (Monte Santo, Bahia) and Cerrado (Palmeiras, Bahia and Luiz Antônio, São Paulo). Nests were excavated in the ground and did not tend to be aggregated together at the two sites, but at...
Data are presented on the nesting and phenology of Canephorula apiformis Friese (Apidae: Eucerini), a monotypic genus of bees endemic to the arid and semi-arid regions of the Argentinian northwest. Aggregations of nests are found in the ground where the surface is horizontal and frequently ex...
Surface nests can range from simple scrapes in the ground, such as what boobies and terns often make, to carefully constructed, elevated nest cups made by some of the Southern hemisphere albatross species. Burrows, which are most common among shearwaters and petrels, are typically dug into the...

“Stellate burrows” are closely packed vertical shafts that radiate subhorizontally at the sediment surface, and they are interpreted as the products of the organized nesting behavior of halictid (sweat) bees. Quaternary eolianites along the eastern coast of the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico, resemble ...
NESTING WITH WASPS INCREASES NEST SUCCESS OF THE RED-CHEEKED CORDON-BLEU IN GHANA Associations between birds and social Hymenoptera (ants, wasps, bees) are common intropical regions and are usually assumed to be commensal relationships benefiting birds, but neitherhelping nor harming the arthropods. ...
