Comparative study of the cuticular hydrocarbon composition of Melipona bicolor Lepeletier, 1836 (Hymenoptera, Meliponini) workers and queens
(2003-12-01)
In social insects, cuticular hydrocarbons are involved in species, kin, caste and nestmate recognition. Gas chromatography and mass spectrometry were used to compare the cuticular hydrocarbon composition of workers, males ...

Sub-lethal effects of the consumption of Eupatorium buniifolium essential oil in honeybees
(Public Library of Science, 2020-11)
When developing new products to be used in honeybee colonies, further than acute toxicity,it is imperative to perform an assessment of risks, including various sublethal effects. Thelong-term sublethal effects of xenobiotics ...
Characterization of cuticular hydrocarbons of diploid and haploid males, workers and queens of the stingless bee Melipona quadrifasciata
(SPRINGER BASEL AGBASEL, 2012)
Males, queens and workers of stingless bees show differences in external morphology, behaviour and roles within a colony. In addition, each individual has a cuticular chemical signature responsible for mutual communication ...
The evolution of tachinid pollination in Neotinea ustulata is related to floral cuticular composition and the combined high relative production of (Z)-11-C23/C25enes
(Wiley, 2023)
Among terrestrial orchids, and particularly among the subtribe Orchidinae, flies are underrepresented as pollinators. The European Neotinea ustulata, which developed specialized pollination by tachinid flies, is known to ...
