Pollinators have an essential role in the reproduction of plant species in natural areas and in agriculture. Knowledge about their spatial and temporal distribution is of extreme importance for biodiversity conservation and sustainable use, and can be generated from records of species occurrence obtained from field inventories. Online availability of those data is increasing rapidly and w…
The current pollinators decline, especially bee populations, is a serious global problem which demands efforts to monitor its biodiversity, conservation and sustainable use. Given the current status of the taxonomic impediment faced nowadays, a key component is the development and application of auxiliary tools that allow us to assess intra and inter-specific variation. The characterizati…
Bees are very important for the pollination of plants cultivated all over the world, guaranteeing diverse ecosystem services and having economic and ecological importance. Native bees produce honey, wax, cerumen, propolis, and geopropolis, in addition, inside the hive many organisms live in symbiosis with bees. One of those organisms is yeasts, which help with pollen fermentation, increas…
The pollination by bees is essential in terrestrial ecosystems for both agricultural production and environmental conservation. The decline of these essential pollinators, as it has already been recorded in various parts of the world, will probably lead to the extinction of many other species that rely on their services. Nowadays, there is a large concern related to global warming, that, …
One of the most serious global problems is the decline of pollinator populations, so that various efforts are being made to monitor the biodiversity of bees, their conservation and sustainable use. Among the pollinators, bees are primarily responsible for the service of pollination of crops and maintenance of native ecosystems. However, several factors have contributed to the decrease in …

Phylogeographicy studies have experienced an exponentialplosive growth in the last years due to the development of DNA technologies, theories and statistical analysis. However, the number of phylogeographic studies for the Caatinga regions is still very low. Some researches suggest that the geographic distribution of Caatinga was highly affected during the climatic fluctuations of the Ple…
One of the most serious global concerns is the decline in pollinator's population, so that many efforts are being made to monitor the biodiversity of bees, their conservation and sustainable use. Among the pollinators, the bees are main responsible for crop pollination service and maintenance of native ecosystems. However, several factors have contributed to the decrease of its diversity,…
