Abstract: Nesting and use of pollen resources by Tetrapedia diversipes Klug (Apidae) in Atlantic Forest areas (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) in different stages of regeneration. The nesting in trap-nests and use of pollen sources in larval food by Tetrapedia diversipes Klug, 1810 (Apidae) was compared between regenerating areas of Atlantic Forest. The study was conducted between April 2008 and October 2009 at União Biological Reserve, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. T. diversipes nested in 66 trap-nests and showed a peak of nesting d… Show more

“…In the present study, Tetrapedia diversipes was classified as an intermediate species and possible pollinator of flowers of Ludwigia, due to the presence of a structure (scopa) that facilitates the transport of pollen. Silveira et al (1993), Alves dos Santos (1999), Steiner et al (2010), Ruim et al (2011) and Menezes et al (2012) verified the interaction of Tetrapedia diversipes with flowers of Ludwigia in Mata Atlântica areas in the states of Minas Gerais, Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina, Paraná and Rio de Janeiro, respectively.…”

“…Studies on the residual pollen content from nests of T. diversipes in different ecosystems showed that unrelated plant species of Dalechampia L. (Euphorbiaceae), Ludwigia L. (Onagraceae), and Pereskia Mill. (Cactaceae), all of them characterized by large pollen grains, are known as pollen sources (Menezes et al 2012;Lyra-Neves et al 2014;Rocha-Filho and Garófalo 2016). Additionally, the main source of pollen for the two Tetrapedia species, Pereskia grandifolia Haw., bloomed throughout all the year (Rocha-Filho and Garófalo 2016) and was located at the forest edge, where most of T. diversipes nests and all nests of T. aff.…”

“…These findings indicate that Centris and Epicharis species are more dependent on the resources provided by Byrsonima than Tetrapedia and Tapinotaspidini species. Perhaps species of Tetrapedia and Tapinotaspidini use other plants more intensively as food sources, as suggested by studies on the diet of the larvae of Tetrapedia diversipes Klug (Menezes et al, 2012;Neves et al, 2014) and Tetrapedia curvitarsis Friese (Campos, unpubl. data).…”
