“…Pollen profile collected by different stingless bees species has been documented in Southeast Asia [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ] and South America [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 ]. Stingless bees collect pollen from underutilised fruits, tree, and ornamental plants, shrubs, epiphytes, herbs, and lianas [ 21 , 31 ]. They have smaller body size compared to honeybees, which provides an advantage in collecting pollen from small flowers such as Mimosa pudica [ 22 , 26 ] and Mimosa caesalpiniaefolia [ 33 ].…”
