Distinct Intra‐ and Interspecific Foraging Patterns of Stingless Bee Species as a Conservation Tool
In this study, we examined the foraging patterns of three rescued stingless bee species in the Bolivian Yungas using melissopalynology and plant–pollinator network analysis. We found distinct floral ....

Our new study shows how animal biodiversity loss is a climate problem: tropical forests recover far less carbon where seed dispersers have declined.
We’re not just losing forests – we’re losing their ability to regrow.
Reversing that trend could align biodiversity recovery with climate solutions.🧵
