Social Learning in Bumblebees (Bombus impatiens): Worker Bumblebees Learn to Manipulate and Forage at Artificial Flowers by Observation and Communication within the Colony by Hamida B. Mirwan, Peter G. Kevan

“…Using artificial flowers, we studied social learning by allowing test bumblebees to (a) see dead bumblebees arranged in foraging positions or (b) watch live bumblebees actually foraging or (c) communicate with nestmates within their colony without having seen foraging. …”

Wild Bumblebee (Bombus) Diversity and Nosema (Microsporidia: Nosematidae) Infection Levels Associated with Lowbush Blueberry (Vaccinium angustifolium) Production and Commercial Bumblebee Pollinators by Sara L. Bushmann, Francis A. Drummond, Lee A. Beers, Eleanor Groden

“…The primary objective was to determine if the prevalence of Nosema bombi infection is higher for wild bumblebees (Bombus spp.) caught in lowbush blueberry growing areas with a history of commercial bumblebee use than for bumblebees caught in areas without a history of commercial bumblebee use. …”

Phantom hairy black holes and wormholes in Einstein-bumblebee gravity by Chikun Ding, Changqing Liu, Yuehua Xiao, Jun Chen

“…Abstract In this paper we study Einstein-bumblebee gravity theory minimally coupled with external matter – a phantom/non-phantom (conventional) scalar field, and derive a series of hairy solutions – bumblebee-phantom (BP) and BP-dS/AdS black hole solutions, regular Ellis-bumblebee-phantom (EBP) and BP-AdS wormholes, etc. …”

Charged spherically symmetric and slowly rotating charged black hole solutions in bumblebee gravity by Jia-Zhou Liu, Wen-Di Guo, Shao-Wen Wei, Yu-Xiao Liu

“…Abstract In this paper, we study the scenario in which the matter field is an electromagnetic field nonminimally coupled to the bumblebee vector field. We present exact charged spherically symmetric black hole solutions and slowly rotating charged solutions in bumblebee gravity with and without a cosmological constant. …”

Differences in visitation of honeybees and bumblebees to ornamental plant varieties can be explained by floral traits by Femke Verweij, Koos Biesmeijer, Saskia Klumpers

“…For most plant genera, cultivars of the same species varied significantly in attractiveness. Honeybees and bumblebees generally did not find the same cultivars and plant genera attractive. …”
