Pollen Load and Flower Constancy of Three Species of Stingless Bees (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Meliponinae)
Listed in RIN Data Repository
<p>The genera of stingless bees play an important role as pollinators of plants.
Description
These bees are actively involved in the pollination of agricultural crops and known to have preferences in selecting flowers to pollinate. The aims of this study were to analyse the pollen load and flower constancy in Tetragonula laeviceps, Lepidotrigona terminata, and Heterotrigona itama.
Each individual of species stingless bees collected and was put in a 1.5 mL micro-tube contain 0.5 mL 70 persen ethanol:glycerol (4:1). Pollen loads on eachindividual of stingless bees was counted by hemocytometer. Flower constancy of stingless bees was measured based on percentage of pollen type loaded on the body.

Results showed that the pollen loads of H. itama was the highest (31392 pollen grains) followed by L. terminata (23017 pollen grains) and T. laeviceps (8015 pollen grains). These species also demonstrated different flower constancy, T. laeviceps on Poaceae flowers (76.49 persen), L. terminata on Euphorbiaceae flowers (80.46 persen), and H. itama on Solanaceae flowers (83.33 persen). </p> <p>Tropical Life Sciences Research, 28(2), 179–187, 2017 </p>
