Nova hipótese de relacionamento filogenético entre os gêneros de Euglossini e entre as espécies de Eulaema Lepeletier, 1841 (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Euglossini)

Abstract: RESUMOO gênero Eulaema Lepeletier, 1841, assim como os demais gêneros de Euglossini, é particularmente conhecido por suas relações com as orquídeas. É exclusivamente neotropical, composto de abelhas grandes (20 a 30 mm), com pilosidade densa, língua longa e, diferentemente dos demais gêneros de Euglossini, sem brilho metálico na cabeça e no tórax. Até agora, quatro hipóteses de relações filogenéticas entre os gêneros de Euglossini foram apresentadas, mas, em nenhuma a monofilia do gênero Eulaema ficou bem corr… Show more

“…Brazil and Colombia report the highest diversity of orchid bee species in the world, with 117 and 116 species, respectively (Moure 2000, Roubik 2004, Ramírez 2005, Anjos-Silva & Rebêlo 2006, followed by Peru (79), Venezuela (70) and Panama (69) (Ramírez et al 2002, Roubik & Hanson 2004, Rasmussen & Skov 2006, Oliveira 2006a. There are 208 valid species of euglossine bees presently known to man, 96% of which are free-living.…”

“…The cleptoparasitic genus Exaerete Hoffmannsegg is represented by seven species, ranging from Mexico to southern Argentina (Anjos-Silva & Rebêlo 2006), and Aglae Lepeletier & Serville is a monotypic genus that was presumed to occur only in the Amazon Basin (Moure 1964(Moure , 1967Michener 2000, Cameron 2004 (Wittmann et al 1988) (Brazil), Missiones (Argentina) and Paraguay to central Mexico (Moure 2000, Michener 2000, Cameron 2004, Oliveira 2006a). This genus was initially represented by 15 species (Moure 1950, Dressler 1979, Ospina-Torres 1998 According to existing literature, the E. cingulata occurs from northwest Mexico to Bolivia and southern Brazil, whereas distribution of the E. pseudocingulata Oliveira is restricted to the Amazon Basin, Venezuela and Trinidad & Tobago.…”

“…All characters (overall size, shape of metatiba, shape of mesotibial tufts, length of paraocular ivory markings and ivory markings on the scapes, punctation -see Among Apini, vivid metallic colors are usually considered an apomorphy of Euglossina (Oliveira, 2006). Nevertheless, members of Eulaema usually lack metallic colors and present black integument, except for some metallic hues on terga of members of the subgenus Eulaema and on the distal three terga of Eulaema (Apeulaema) nigrita Lepeletier, 1841.…”

“…The tribe Euglossini comprises 218 species in 5 genera, including the genus Eulaema with 29 described species (Oliveira 2006;Nemésio 2009). Euglossine bees (Hymenoptera: Apidae), commonly known as orchid bees, are charismatic insects characterized by extremely long tongues and shiny iridescent colors (Roubik and Hanson 2004).…”
