Bumble bee nest abundance, foraging distance, and host-plant reproduction: implications for management and conservation.

Ecological applications : a publication of the Ecological Society of America - 1 Apr 2015

Geib Jennifer C, Strange James P, Galenj Candace

Abstract excerpt

Recent reports of global declines in pollinator species imply an urgent need to assess the abundance of native pollinators and density-dependent benefits for linked plants. In this study, we investigated (1) pollinator nest distributions and estimated colony abundances, (2) the relationship between abundances of foraging workers and the number of nests they represent, (3) pollinator foraging ranges, and (4) the...
