Landscape impacts on pollinator communities in temperate systems: evidence and knowledge gaps (2017, unknown): “For example, oilseed rape improves colony growth in bumblebees (Westphal, Steﬀan-Dewenter & Tscharntke 2009 and references therein) and also has a positive eﬀect on the abundance (Holzschuh et al. 2013) and species richness of cavity-nesting bees and wasps (Diek € otter et al. 2014).”
Cavity-nest boxes for solitary bees: a century of design and research (2017, background): “Although not discussed in this review, numerous species of solitary wasps also use nest boxes (Danks 1971; Taki et al. 2008; Matsumoto and Makino 2011; Ebeling et al. 2012; Diekötter et al. 2014; Staab et al. 2014) and often abundantly (MacIvor and Packer 2015).”
