À propos du comportement de butinage de Megachile sculpturalis Smith, 1853, en France méditerranéenne (Nîmes et Montpellier) (Hymenoptera, Megachilidae)

Abstract: L'étude du contenu pollinique de deux échantillons prélevés, soit sur un spécimen de Megachile sculpturalis Smith, 1853, soit dans la loge d'un "hôtel à insectes" fréquenté par cet Hyménoptère, livre des indications préliminaires sur le comportement de butinage et sur le régime alimentaire de cette abeille invasive dont la première observation en France date de 2008. La domination des assemblages polliniques par le pollen de Sophora, une Fabaceae arborescente originaire d'Asie et plantée essentiellement dans l… Show more

“…(Loganiaceae); (Guariento et al, 2019;Quaranta et al, 2014;Ribas-Marquès & Díaz-Calafat, 2021), whereas females were most notably observed collecting pollen of the Japanese pagoda tree, Styphnolobium japonicum (L.). These observations were supported by three European studies, which identified the collected pollen morphologically (Aguado et al, 2018;Andrieu-Ponel et al, 2018;Westrich et al, 2015). The main limitation of the mentioned investigations is the small sample size exploited (N < 10) to conclude significant bee-plant interactions.…”

“…For example, Bombus ruderatus, once critically endangered [35] and now extinct [36] in native Denmark, is apparently abundant in New Zealand [37]. Other bees are inadvertently exotic [38], in particular those species that nest in stems or wood and are polylectic [39][40][41][42]. Oligolectic exotic species are also known, but they usually remain specialized on pollen hosts closely related to those visited in their native range [39].…”

“…Based on numerous sources (cf. Ćetković et al 2020; an ongoing analysis), M. sculpturalis shows particularly strong preference for the pollen of Fabaceae (Batra 1998;Mangum and Sumner 2003;Maeta et al 2008;Westrich et al 2015;Campbell et al 2016;Dillier 2016;Hall and Avila 2016;Aguado et al 2018;Andrieu-Ponel et al 2018;Guariento et al 2019;Ruzzier et al 2020;Westrich 2020;Ribas Marquès and Díaz Calafat 2021), principally of large-flowered members of the subfamily Faboideae. Within the European range, most frequently documented pollen-source is the ornamental Japanese pagoda tree, Styphnolobium japonicum (L.) Schott.…”
