πΈHow do non-native #pollinators change pollinating networks?
πBy analyzing 2,100+ records in Chile, researchers found that non-native bees (like π. π΅π¦π³π³π¦π΄π΅π³πͺπ΄) are shifting #pollination networks toward less specialized homogenized structures, with π. π΅π¦π³π³π¦π΄π΅π³πͺπ΄ dominating 73% of the interactions.

π #Bees are less effective #pollinators than vertebrates at high elevations. However the "why" and "when" are still being unraveled. π

πΈExciting #pollinator research at #ECTE2026! Dr. Agnes Dellinger (@the-kunsze.bsky.social) presented on how #environmental shifts can trigger pollinator shifts.
Key takeaway: itβs not just one factor, itβs a mix of macro/micro-ecology and shifting biotic communities.

Can pest traps help detect #pollinators? π
Floral scent traps (usually for pests) in the Pannonian Lowland were tested: 27,539 insects (123 species) across 7 sites were recorded. On average, 90% were potential pollinators; orchards supported more #insects than arable lands β€΅οΈ doi.org/10.3897/BDJ....
