The effects of cavity length on nest size, sex ratio and mortality of Centris (Heterocentris) analis (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Centridini)

The following atypical and rare behavior for auxiliary cell construction was observed: (i) con- struction was stopped at the Concavity Sub-stage or the beginning of Wall Formation;

After closing the last brood cell, the female initiates new col- lections of plant material to construct a wall in front of the closure of the last cell and before the nest plug
