“…Such strategy for rare species has been used with success elsewhere (Raxworthy et al 2003;Pearson et al 2007;De Siqueira et al 2009) and should be used continuously as it will optimize to a large extent the amount of resources invested in field surveys (Guisan et al 2006). Similar approaches to this study should also be considered to other South American Euglossini species sampled outside their previously known distributions (Anjos-Silva 2008;Silva and Rebêlo 2009), in order to properly assess the distribution patterns of these species and pinpoint notsampled but potentially fruitful areas for future surveys. This suggestion is particularly appropriate for areas of poor knowledge on Euglossini diversity, such as those in the Brazilian Cerrado (Nemésio and Silveira 2007).…”

Amazonian species within the Cerrado savanna: new records and potential distribution for Aglae caerulea (Apidae: Euglossini)

International audienceGiven human-related changes, quality distributional data are required for consistent conservation. Still, the lack of proper biogeographic information is a major setback for many groups. Here, we use new occurrences for Aglae caerulea in the Cerrado to model its potential distribution. We used Maximum Entropy (MaxEnt) and Genetic Algorithm for Rule-Set Production (GARP) algorithms in different modeling runs and both previous and new A. caerulea occurrences to predict this species distribution. Models which used only the previous A. caerulea’s records did not predicted the new Cerrado records, while those where we used the latter did predict the new ones as minimally suitable. A. caerulea distribution significantly increased towards the Cerrado according to both MaxEnt and GARP algorithms. Gallery forests are important dispersal alternatives for several species dwelling the Amazon and the Atlantic forest. Niche models of other rare Euglossini bees are advised to better evaluate their distributions

Padrões espaciais na distribuição de abelhas Euglossina (Hymenoptera, Apidae) da região Neotropical

2010

Abelhas das orquídeas (Apini, Euglossina) apresentam distribuição principalmente Neotropical, com cerca de 200 espécies e cinco gêneros descritos. Muitos levantamentos locais de fauna estão disponíveis na literatura, mas estudos comparativos sobre a composição e distribuição dos Euglossina são ainda escassos. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar os dados disponíveis de 29 assembleias a fim de entender os padrões gerais de distribuição espacial nas áreas amostradas ao longo do Neotrópico. Métodos de ordenação (DCA e NMDS) foram utilizados para descrever os agrupamentos de assembleias de acordo com as ocorrências de abelhas das orquídeas. As localidades de florestas da América Central e da Amazônia formaram grupos coesos em ambas as análises, enquanto as localidades de Mata Atlântica ficaram mais dispersas nos gráficos. Localidades na margem leste da Amazônia aparecem como áreas de transição características entre esta sub-região e a Mata Atlântica. As análises de variância entre o primeiro eixo da DCA e variáveis selecionadas apresentaram valores significantes quanto à influência dos gradientes de latitude, longitude e precipitação, bem como das sub-regiões biogeográficas nos agrupamentos das assembleias. O padrão geral encontrado é congruente com os padrões biogeográficos previamente propostos para a região Neotropical. Os resultados do DCA auxiliam ainda a identificar, de forma independente, os elementos das faunas de cada uma das formações vegetais estudadas.

“…While most of the South American expansion records are likely due to the bees own dispersal capabilities (Anjos-Silva et al 2006, Anjos-Silva 2007, 2008, Silva and Rebêlo 2009, Silva et al 2013, Martins et al 2016), the E. viridissima records from Baja California are unlikely to have gotten there by long distance migration. Alternatively, these bees are cavity nesters (May-Itzá et al 2014), making it possible that occupied nests would survive the carrying from the continental lands to the peninsula.…”

“…Orchid bees are powerful long distance flyers, such that females have been found to fly several kilometers while foraging (Janzen 1971, López-Uribe et al 2008), and males have been recaptured nearly 100 km away (Pokorny et al 2015). Some euglossine species have been recently discovered in areas that expand considerably their known native range (Anjos-Silva et al 2006, Anjos-Silva 2007, 2008, Silva and Rebêlo 2009). A notable example of an introduction to a distant area is Euglossa dilemma Bembé & Eltz which was discovered in 2003 in southern Florida, and is now naturalized (Skov and Wiley 2005, Pemberton and Wheeler 2006).…”

Orchid bees are a conspicuous component of the neotropical bee fauna, with a few species reaching the northernmost natural distribution for the group in northwestern continental Mexico. Among them, Euglossa viridissima Friese is here reported for the first time in the Cape Region of the Baja California peninsula, Mexico, where no species of the group have been found previously. These records are presented, their biogeographical implications discussed, and some interpretations of the local factors that influence the bees is presented.
