Si te equivocas de entrada puede que visites la casa de una Donacosa merlini (Lycosidae). Un hembra de Eucera rufa (Apidae) es arrastrada bajo la atenta mirada de 3 machos que no entienden nada y que a pasar de sus esfuerzos no pudieron salvarla. 🐝💔🕷️

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of joining "the Bee’s Knees" podcast, where we talked about our latest research on honeybees and what it means for wild pollinators. 🎙️🐝
You can listen to the episode here: thebeesknees.website/wild-pollina...
Pollination Overload: Why More Honey Bees Don't Always Mean Better Crops (Ep. 67) - The Bee's Knees
Can having too many honeybee hives in our landscapes be detrimental? Dr. Ainhoa Magrach led a comprehensive review that brings fresh clarity to a long-standing question: how does the number of honeybee hives in a landscape affect wild pollinators, plant reproduction, and ecosystem health? We explore how the overuse of managed honeybees can sometimes undermine biodiversity and agricultural productivity and discuss sustainable practices that can make a difference.

How is #climatechange reshaping plant–pollinator timing (phenological overlap) in Mediterranean ecosystems? Can #biodiversity buffer mismatches?

Generalized plant–pollinator phenological climate‐driven advances still lead to a decline in phenological overlap
Climate change is altering the phenology of interacting species, potentially leading to mismatches in the timing of their interactions. This may affect the delivery of key ecosystem services such as ...

Ok, so since there's nothing coordinated anywhere, I've decided to make my own crowd-sourced list of ecology and conservation conferences here. If you know of a conference that fits, please add it to the list! Let's turn this into a useful resource for the community tinyurl.com/yb6e6mb2
