“…The faunal composition observed in the JBRJ was similar to other studies conducted in Atlantic Forest fragments using the trap-nest method, such as those of Alves-dos- Santos (2003), Gazola & Garófalo (2009), Gaglianone et al (2011) and Rocha-Filho et al (2017). These localities present a similar faunal composition with species of Tetrapedia, Hylaeus, Megachile, Euglossini, Pachodynerus and Auplopus.…”

Urban areas, as cities, are frequently overlooked as refuges for the native fauna. However, these places may support several species and house relevant biodiversity contributing to important ecosystemic functions. Wasps and bees (Hymenoptera: Apocrita) are important faunistic elements acting as predators/parasitoids and pollinators, respectively. Therefore, they must be surveyed and inventoried for conservation purposes, especially in cities located in the Atlantic Forest domain, a ravaged Brazilian biome. Accordingly, this study presents a species list of trap-nesting bees and wasps that occurs at the Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro. The survey was conducted using the trap-nest method. Three types of trap-nests were offered totalizing 1,038 traps: rubber hose, bamboo cane and plastic straw. The plastic straw traps were the most effective followed by the bamboo cane ones at attracting nesting wasps and bees. Between April/2017 and February/2019, 12 foundress species built nests: Tetrapedia curvitarsis (Apidae) (33 nests), Hylaeus sp. (Colletidae) (6), Auplopus cf. rufipes (Pompilidae) (5), Trypoxylon sp. (Crabronidae) (4), Pachodynerus nasidens (Vespidae) (3), Auplopus cf. brasiliensis (Pompilidae), Megachile benigna and Megachile sp. (Megachilidae), Euglossa pleosticta, Euglossa sp., and Eufriesea sp. (Apidae) and Penepodium sp. (Sphecidae) all with one nest. Also, four natural enemies were recorded: Chaenotetrastichus neotropicalis (Eulophidae), Gasteruption brachychaetum (Gasterupteiidae), Caenochrysis crotonis (Chrysididae) and Amobia sp. (Diptera: Sarcophagidae). Most bee nests were restrained to the matrix forest and nearby areas, whereas wasps built their nests predominantly in open areas. Regarding seasonality, bees tended to nest in the summer and early autumn influenced by mean temperature, in contrast of wasps that nested in late autumn, winter and spring, influenced by pluviosity. Besides many rare species, which suggests environmental disturbance, the Jardim Botânico do Rio de Janeiro showed a fairly diverse fauna and shows how forest fragment in cities may harbour important representatives of the native fauna.

“…Epicharis Klug, 1807 (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Centridini) is an exclusively Neotropical genus of bees representing about 35 species, which exhibit solitary behavior, the habit of digging their nests in the ground, usually in large aggregations (Roubik & Michener, 1980;Hiller & Wittmann, 1994;Gaglianone, 2005;Thiele & Inouye, 2007;Rocha-Filho et al, 2008;Rozen, 2016;Dec & Vivallo, 2019). Epicharis belongs to a group of approximately 400 species known as oil-collecting bees, due to the female behavior of collecting floral oils, which are used for both cell construction and larval provisions (Alves-dos-Santos et al, 2007;Gaglianone et al, 2011).…”

Nest Structure, Seasonality and Female Behavior of Epicharis (Anepicharis) dejeanii Lepeletier (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Centridini) in a Restinga Ecosystem, in Southern Brazil

et al. 2021

We investigated the nesting behavior of females of Epicharis dejeanii and the architecture of their nests, in a large aggregation in a Restinga area, on Ilha do Superagui, southern Brazil. Surveys were carried out intermittently through the warm-wet seasons from different years between 2013 and 2017. The nest aggregation occupied an area of approximately 2,000 m2 and was situated on a sand bank and on flat sandy soil. Each nest consisted of a long unbranched tunnel, averaging 1.45 ± 0.35 m (N = 8), connected to a single brood cell with a mean length of 3.13 ± 0.2 cm (N = 13) and mean diameter of 1.2 ± 0.1 cm (N = 11). On average, females carried out 4.0 ± 2.4 foraging trips per day (N = 109) to collect floral resources for provisioning brood cells. Similar times were spent by females in their foraging trips for: only pollen (15.8 ± 14.3 min, N = 72), oil (22.5 ± 15.7 min, N = 45), or both resources (17.0 ± 15.1, N = 63). Our findings reveal that some variation in both nesting architecture and female behavior of E. dejeanii during nesting activities can occur in different locations from the same region.

“…In the Neotropics, the species of this group have an important role in ecological networks, especially in their relationships with several oil-offering plant species, mainly of the families Malpighiaceae, Krameriaceae, and Plantaginaceae (Gaglianone et al 2011;Mello et al 2013). Despite their relevance, the bionomy of most of the species of this genus remains unknown.…”

-Despite their relevance for the maintenance of terrestrial ecosystems, important aspects such as the biology and distribution range remain unknown for most species of bees that occur in the Neotropical region. This makes the monitoring of pollinators and the establishment of conservation policies difficult. In this paper, we provide information on the nesting biology and natural enemies of Centris merrillae . Additionally, we provide a potential distribution model based on previously unknown occurrence records that increase the distribution range of this species through northern South America and the Caribbean. The production of such biological and biogeographic information is important to support future field surveys.Centridini / Centris merrillae / distribution range / Neotropical region / solitary bee

“…As cerdas modificadas nas pernas ou abdômen e adaptadas para a coleta de óleo são comumente relacionadas com o tipo de elaióforo explorado (Buchmann 1987, Renner & Schaefer 2010, Possobom & Machado 2017.

Da mesma forma, variações no esforço reprodutivo das funções feminina e masculina podem configurar diferentes gêneros funcionais nestas plantas em um contexto populacional e dependente dos polinizadores (Lloyd, 1980;Bawa & Beach, 1981;Campbell, 1989;Pannell & Verdú, 2006).…”
