Abstract

Two bee species, the European honeybee and the buff-tailed bumblebee, are well-developed models of visual behaviour and ecology. How representative of bees across phylogeny and geography are these two species? Bee sensory systems likely differ between temperate and tropical species due to differences in the intensity or the types of selection pressures. Differences in temperate and tropical floral diversity, abundance and seasonality can influence sensory adaptations and behaviours. Niche partitioning in the speciose tropics along the microhabitat and temporal axes is increasingly reported to involve special visual adaptations in bees. Inclusive approaches encompassing other bee species and building on lessons from the ‘model’ bees will inform how ecology shapes bee senses, and, in turn, the structure of plant–bee mutualisms.

为什么多样性对理解蜜蜂的视觉生态和行为很重要?
欧洲蜜蜂和水尾熊蜂这两种蜜蜂是视觉行为和生态学的典范。这两种蜜蜂在系统发育和地理上的代表性如何?由于选择压力的强度或类型不同,蜜蜂的感官系统在温带和热带物种之间可能存在差异。温带和热带花卉多样性、丰度和季节性的差异会影响感官适应和行为。越来越多的报道称,热带地区沿微生境轴和时间轴的生态区划涉及蜜蜂的特殊视觉适应。包括其他蜜蜂物种在内的包容性方法,以及从 "模式 "蜜蜂中吸取的经验教训,将为生态学如何塑造蜜蜂的感官,进而塑造植物-蜜蜂互生关系的结构提供信息。

期刊介绍: Current Opinion in Insect Science is a new systematic review journal that aims to provide specialists with a unique and educational platform to keep up–to–date with the expanding volume of information published in the field of Insect Science. As this is such a broad discipline, we have determined themed sections each of which is reviewed once a year. The following 11 areas are covered by Current Opinion in Insect Science. -Ecology -Insect genomics -Global Change Biology -Molecular Physiology (Including Immunity) -Pests and Resistance -Parasites, Parasitoids and Biological Control -Behavioural Ecology -Development and Regulation -Social Insects -Neuroscience -Vectors and Medical and Veterinary Entomology There is also a section that changes every year to reflect hot topics in the field. Section Editors, who are major authorities in their area, are appointed by the Editors of the journal. They divide their section into a number of topics, ensuring that the field is comprehensively covered and that all issues of current importance are emphasized. Section Editors commission articles from leading scientists on each topic that they have selected and the commissioned authors write short review articles in which they present recent developments in their subject, emphasizing the aspects that, in their opinion, are most important. In addition, they provide short annotations to the papers that they consider to be most interesting from all those published in their topic over the previous year.
