The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Bee foraging ranges and their relationship to body size (2007, background): “Most of the data we found were not obtained with equal sample eVort per unit area and the number of recaptured bees was too small to rarify the data to correct for unequal sample eVort (e.g., Walther-Hellwig and Frankl 2000).”
Use of genetic markers to quantify bumblebee foraging range and nest density (2004, unknown): “Indeed there is evidence that when large patches of high value forage are available, bumblebees may travel over 1.5 km to utilise these resources (Walther-Hellwig and Frankl 2000).”
Plant Parentage, Pollination, and Dispersal: How DNA Microsatellites Have Altered the Landscape (2010, background): “Other studies have followed the movements of pollinators (Levin and Kerster, 1974; Parra et al., 1993; Walther-Hellwig and Frankl, 2000).”
Adaptation, Genetic Drift, Pleiotropy, and History in the Evolution of Bee Foraging Behavior (2006, background): “The field site was typical central European bumblebee habitat, including dry grassland, deciduous forest, and farmland within the bees’ foraging range (Darvill et al., 2004; Dramstad, 1996; Osborne et al., 1999; Walther-Hellwig and Frankl, 2000).”
