Survival strategies of stingless bees (Melipona subnitida) in an unpredictable environment, the Brazilian tropical dry forest

Surveyed sample reported major changes in agribusiness chain support structures, in actors’ behaviors and the raise of trade-off mechanisms in order to complying with Brazilian

This high relative amount of aroeira pollen in the honey is the result of synchronized mass flowering of this dioecious species in the dry season, when blooming of other bee plants

The temporal overlap between pairs of bee species, inferred from the time of capture of each specimen during its visit to a flower, varied from 0.062 to 0.865, with higher

In summary, contrary to expectations, the community structures of stingless bees did not appear to respond to the dynamics of the forests in the MER —indicating that spatial changes

CIFOR has also developed a framework approach that prioritizes six global regions for greater research (CIFOR 2012), including several important locations where dry forests are
