• The small hive beetle (Aethina tumida Murray, Coleoptera: Nitidulidae): distribution, biology and control of an invasive species (2008, background): “In the U.S., small hive beetles and beetle-associated problems have been reported by beekeepers from California and Texas suggesting that the invasion front has reached the Pacific Ocean.”
• Standard methods for small hive beetle research (2013, background): “In these new ranges, the beetles can be harmful parasites of colonies of European honey bee subspecies (Elzen et al., 1999; Hood, 2004) and may also damage colonies of non-Apis bees such as bumble bees and stingless bees (Spiewok and Neumann, 2006a; Hoffmann et al., 2008; Greco et al., 2010;…”
