新热带兰蜂(Euglossini)经常被引用为具有潜在广泛觅食范围的陷阱觅食的经典例子。如果长距离移动是习惯性的,那么分布广泛的稀有植物可能会受益于euglossine授粉服务。在这里,我们报告的第一次成功使用微型无线电遥测跟踪昆虫传粉者在一个复杂的森林环境中的运动。我们的研究结果表明,个别雄性兰花蜜蜂(Exaerete frontalis)习惯使用大的雨林地区(至少42-115公顷)每天。航空遥测技术确定的个体距离其核心区域最远5公里,蜜蜂在飞往连续地点的航班之间往往静止不动,时间长短不一。这些数据表明,一个更高程度的网站保真度比预期的自由生活的雄性蜜蜂,并为我们理解的生物活动模式和森林传粉者的进化有影响。
Neotropical orchid bees (Euglossini) are often cited as classic examples of trapline-foragers with potentially extensive foraging ranges. If long-distance movements are habitual, rare plants in widely scattered locations may benefit from euglossine pollination services. Here we report the first successful use of micro radio telemetry to track the movement of an insect pollinator in a complex and forested environment. Our results indicate that individual male orchid bees (Exaerete frontalis) habitually use large rainforest areas (at least 42–115 ha) on a daily basis. Aerial telemetry located individuals up to 5 km away from their core areas, and bees were often stationary, for variable periods, between flights to successive localities. These data suggest a higher degree of site fidelity than what may be expected in a free living male bee, and has implications for our understanding of biological activity patterns and the evolution of forest pollinators.
