Resumen
Agricultural plastic waste can alter wildlife diversity and behavior. Species survival will depend on their
ability to adapt to new environmental conditions. In a seed-producing farm, a Megachile sp. nest made fully with
plastic was found in a trap nest. This record represents the first one worldwide on revealing the use of plastic in the
total construction of a bee nest.
