• Pollination services from field-scale agricultural diversification may be context-dependent (2015, methodology): “Yet in spite of the attractiveness of MFC fields, wild bee abundance and richness has been found to be higher in habitats, including hedgerows, in closer proximity to MFC fields (Hanley et al., 2011; Le Féon et al., 2013).”
• Pollinator-friendly management does not increase the diversity of farmland bees and wasps (2015, background): “…number is a substantial fraction of all possible species, with many European studies only recording around 40– 70 bee species (e.g. Holzschuh et al., 2008; Kovács-Hostyánszki et al., 2013; Le Féon et al., 2013), despite surveying a more extensive European fauna, though see Batáry et al. (2010).”
• From research to action: Enhancing crop yield through wild pollinators (2014, background): “In western France, solitary-bee richness and abundance were higher in margins of canola fields than in fields of other crops (Le Féon et al. 2013).”
• Weeds for bees? A review (2015, background): “…of crops by bees depend on the landscape features, with greater pollination in landscapes with a higher density of semi-natural elements (Carvalheiro et al. 2010; Le Féon et al. 2013; Kennedy et al. 2013) although the effect also depends on the spatial scale (Steffan-Dewenter and Westphal 2008).”
• Landscape impacts on pollinator communities in temperate systems: evidence and knowledge gaps (2017, unknown): “For example, solitary bee abundance was positively influenced by the presence of temporary grasslands in cereal rotations (Le Feon et al. 2013) and bee species richness in wildflower strips on arable land increased with the amount of semi-natural habitats in the landscape (Scheper et al. 2015) (see…”
