Abstract
The African species Xylocopa pubescens Spinola (Hymenoptera, Apidae) has recently stabilized in some European countries such as Cyprus, Greece, and Spain. Wood transportation and climate change are the main hypotheses for the spread of this non-native bee in Europe. I present the first record in the literature from Santorini and the Aegean Archipelago, confirming the Citizen Science data from different websites. The presence and the spread of this species in Europe are discussed.
期刊介绍：
SOCIOBIOLOGY publishes high quality articles that significantly contribute to the knowledge of Entomology, with emphasis on social insects. Articles previously submitted to other journals are not accepted. SOCIOBIOLOGY publishes original research papers and invited review articles on all aspects related to the biology, evolution and systematics of social and pre-social insects (Ants, Termites, Bees and Wasps). The journal is currently expanding its scope to incorporate the publication of articles dealing with other arthropods that exhibit sociality. Articles may cover a range of subjects such as ecology, ethology, morphology, population genetics, physiology, toxicology, reproduction, sociobiology, caste differentiation as well as economic impact and pest management.
