The role of resources and risks in regulating wild bee populations. (2011, background): “(30) found that stingless bee nests were associated primarily with very large tropical forest trees, but that nest density was better explained by pollen resource availability than by nest availability in forests with different histories of disturbance.”
Global meliponiculture: challenges and opportunities (2006, background): “Eltz et al. (2003) considered that the loss of pollinators occurs even if the rules for certified wood management are taken into account.”
Foraging in honeybees—when does it pay to dance? (2008, background): “2004) and between stingless bees and honeybees (Koeniger and Vorwohl 1979), as well as the high densities in which stingless bees are often found (Eltz et al. 2002; Eltz et al. 2003).”
A major shift to the retention approach for forestry can help resolve some global forest sustainability issues (2012, background): “For example, increased adoption of the general principles underpinning the retention approach, particularly long-term maintenance of key stand structures, would greatly improve RIL practices in tropical forests as already evidenced in some tropical regions of the world (Eltz et al. 2003; Ezzine de B”
