Landscape composition determines reproductive success: more cropland and forest reduce brood cell numbers.

The results highlight how local plant communities and land use shape specialist bee #conservation and could guide grassland #restoration.

New article led by Evan T. Sloan🐝

Pollen metabarcoding shows strong preference for Cichorioideae in the specialist bee Osmia leaiana.

Foraging patterns are driven by local flower abundance and nearby semi-natural grasslands.

Great talk by Lisa Prudnikow at #BES Annual Meeting

Reproductive success of mason bees is higher at orchard edges, while management and landscape factors seem to have little effect so far 🍎

Next up: cascading effects of pollen diet and gut microbiome!
