  • The Bee Fauna of Eocene Fushun Amber (Hymenoptera

    Open AccessMichael S Engel, Jiaying XieARTICLEBulletin of the American Museum…2024

    The now inaccessible amber deposits of the Fushun coalfield (Guchengzi Formation; Ypresian) represent the only diverse record of Paleogene arthropods from northeastern Asia. Among the wealth of inclusions recovered from the mines before they were closed and filled, only five specimens of bees were discovered. Meager as they are, these samples provide an important paleogeographical point of reference for piecing together the fauna of forest-dwelli…

  • Stingless bees (Hymenoptera

    Open AccessMónica M Solórzano‐Kraemer, Robin Kunz et al.ARTICLEThe Holocene2022References: 2

    Although specimens in fossil to Recent resins are remarkable for their fidelity of preservation, amber is well known and studied, unlike the younger resins as Pleistocene copal (2.58–0.0117 Ma) and Holocene copal (0.0117 Ma–1760 AD), or Defaunation resin, which is resin produced after 1760 AD. However, the scientific relevance of these younger resins preserving arthropods that lived in pre-Anthropocene time is often underestimated. Here, we prese…

  • South American Leaf-Cutter Bees (Genus Megachile) of the Subgenera Rhyssomegachile and Zonomegachile, with Two New Subgenera (Hymenoptera

    Open AccessVictor H Gonzalez, Terry Griswold et al.ARTICLEBulletin of the American Museum…2018

    Leaf-cutter bees (genus Megachile Latreille) are among the most common and diverse group of bees. However, the identity and taxonomic placement of many species are problematic and species identification is often difficult. Some species are known only from a single specimen or from one of the sexes, and identification keys are not available for many groups. We address these taxonomic issues for the subgenera Rhyssomegachile Mitchell and Zonomegach…

  • Phylogenetic Relationships of a New Genus of Calliopsine Bees from Peru, with a Review of Spinoliella Ashmead (Hymenoptera

    Open AccessVictor H Gonzalez, Allan H Smith-Pardo et al.ARTICLEBulletin of the American Museum…2017

    We establish a new genus for an unusual species of Peruvian calliopsine bees (Panurginae: Calliopsini) that was initially reported in the literature as an undescribed species of Spinoliella Ashmead that purportedly expanded the range of the latter genus beyond Argentina and Chile. Although the new genus superficially resembles Spinoliella, it is easily distinguished by a unique combination of characters in both sexes but particularly in the male …
