Angiosperm flora used by meliponine guilds (Apidae, Meliponina) occurring at rainforest edges in the state of Ceará, Brazil

Abstract: Information about the use of floristic resources of the immediate edges of ombrophilous forest (Atlantic rainforest) fragments by stingless bees is not readily available in the scientific literature. Considering the importance of these plant species for local guilds of stingless bees, this study aimed to identify and characterize the flora of the immediate borders of four Atlantic rainforest fragments situated in Baturité massif, state of Ceará, used as food resource by stingless bees. We studied the growth-fo… Show more

“…They commonly interact with plants of the botanical families best represented in Neotropical environments (Lima-Verde et al 2014;Ramalho et al 1990, in this study). This plastic and opportunistic trophic behavior does not appear to represent a species-specific characteristic, but a response to the local abundance of these bees, as observed herein.…”
