Are all urban green spaces a favourable habitat for pollinator communities? Bees, butterflies and hoverflies in different urban green areas (2019, background): “Contrastingly, urban grasslands with greater coverage of surface greenery provide sufficient space for the development of diverse plants which serve as sources of food for pollinators (Steffan-Dewenter & Tscharntke, 2000; Frankie et al., 2005; Pawelek et al., 2009).”
The city as a refuge for insect pollinators (2017, background): “In the midst of a pollination crisis, where insect pollinator populations are experiencing significant declines (Jaffe et al. 2010; Pleasants & Oberhauser 2013; Goulson et al. 2015), studies of native bee richness and abundance indicate that diverse communities of wild bees persist in cities in many”
Ecology of Urban Bees: A Review of Current Knowledge and Directions for Future Study (2009, background): “Many of the urban bee surveys reviewed indicated that floral specialists are scarce in urban habitats (Cane 2005; Frankie et al. 2005; Cane et al. 2006; McFrederick and LeBuhn 2006; Fetridge et al. 2008; Frankie et al. 2009).”
Environmental factors affecting bee diversity in urban and remote grassland plots in Boulder, Colorado (2009, background): “Recent studies have specifically addressed the bee fauna of urban habitats (Tomassi et al. 2004 ;C ane2005b; Frankie et al. 2005; Zanette et al. 2005; Cane et al. 2006; McFrederick and LeBuhn 2006; Hinners 2008; Matteson et al. 2008).”
The importance of urban backgardens on plant and invertebrate recruitment: a field microcosm experiment (2010, background): “For instance, Frankie et al. (2005) monitored flowering plants within two cities in California and established that diverse assemblages of solitary and social native bee species could exist in urban ecosystems provided that there were sufficient nesting sites and flowering plants (even exotic hort”
Nutritional stress due to habitat loss may explain recent honeybee colony collapses. (2009, background): “Some studies showing that developed land such as urban and residential areas provide suitable habitats for native bees (Frankie et al., 2005; Cane et al., 2006; Winfree et al., 2007) have been largely misconstrued as all bees being quite adaptable to anthropogenic land use patterns.”
Food in a row: urban trees offer valuable floral resources to pollinating insects (2016, background): “Nevertheless, floral abundance has been reported to be a major limiting factor for the diversity of pollinating insects in urban gardens (Comba et al. 1999b; Frankie et al. 2005; Banaszak-Cibicka and Żmihorski 2012).”
Patterns of pollinator turnover and increasing diversity associated with urban habitats (2017, background): “Yet many bee species persist in urban areas (Saure 1996; Tommasi et al. 2004; Frankie et al. 2005).”
Humans, bees, and pollination services in the city: the case of Chicago, IL (USA) (2014, unknown): “…while axis 2 is negatively correlated with human population density (r = - 0.50) and positively correlated with solar radiation (r = 0.33) yards (Frankie et al. 2005) and suggested that increased availability of species-rich ﬂower patches could improve the spatial extent of pollination services…”
Bee Richness and Abundance in New York City Urban Gardens (2008, background): “…ßoral diversity of urban habitats, such as small parks and gardens, is often dominated by exotic and horticultural varieties (Thompson et al. 2003, Frankie et al. 2005) potentially increasing the number of generalist (polylectic) bee species that can make use of a variety of ßoral resource types.”
The Bee Fauna of Residential Gardens in a Suburb of New York City (Hymenoptera: Apoidea) (2008, background): “Several reasons may underlie the apparent absence of these species: Þrst, host plants of several specialist (oligolectic) Andrena, such as trout lily (Erythronium spp.), the sole pollen source for A. erythronii Robertson, are missing from gardens (Frankie et al. 2005).”
Massively Introduced Managed Species and Their Consequences for Plant–Pollinator Interactions (2017, background): “Conversely, Frankie et al. (2005) did not observe any aggressive behav- iour between Apis and non-Apis during a 5-year survey of bee visitation within gardens in a city of California (USA).”
