蚕豆的传粉昆虫。2000年、2001年和2002年在阿尔及利亚君士坦丁地区的开花季节进行了研究。观察到8种蜜蜂。野生蜜蜂Eucera numida Lepeletier和蜜蜂Apis mellifera L.是最丰富的传粉者Eucera numida似乎是最有效的传粉者。它们的造访都能使花朵受精。相反，三分之一的蜜蜂访花是通过大黄蜂在花冠底部所做的洞来“掠夺花蜜”的。与A. numida相比，Eucera numida的访花速度也更快（m = 10次/分钟），蜜蜂更容易绊倒蚕豆花。意利费拉。传粉者可以接近的植物每株植物提供更多的豆荚，每豆荚更多的种子，种子比笼中植物更重，形状更好。
Pollinating insects of Vicia faba L. in Constantine area (Algeria) were studied during flowering season of the years 2000, 2001 and 2002. Eight bee species were observed. The wild bee Eucera numida Lepeletier and the honey bee Apis mellifera L. were the most abundant pollinators. Eucera numida seems the most effective pollinator. Their visits are all able to fertilize the flowers. On the contrary, a third of the floral visits of the honey bee are "nectar robbery" through the holes made by the bumblebees at the base of the corolla. The floral visits of Eucera numida are also faster (m = 10 visits per minute) and the bee trips more easily the faba bean flowers than A. mellifera. The plants that are accessible to pollinators provide more pods per plant, more seeds per pods, and the seeds are heavier and of better shape than the encaged plants.
