• Why do honey bees dance? (2004, background): “Most natural distributions of flowers will be between these two extremes (Beekman and Ratnieks 2000; Osborne and Williams 2001; Steffan-Dewenter and Kuhn 2003).”
• The effect of grazing on bumblebees in the high rangelands of the eastern Tibetan Plateau of Sichuan (2008, background): “Williams 1989, 2005; Osborne et al. 1999; Osborne and Williams 2001 ) and nest-site preferences (Svensson et al. 2000; Kells and Goulson 2003), they should face increasing constraints when suitable habitats become fragmented, which might lead to bumblebee declines in degraded landscapes.”
• Foraging trip duration of bumblebees in relation to landscape‐wide resource availability (2006, background): “Once a bumblebee has discovered a rewarding foraging site, it will memorise the location, and exploit the site as long as it will be rewarding (site and flower constancy) ( Heinrich, 1976; Chittka et al. , 1999; Osborne & Williams, 2001 ).”
