The impacts of COVID-19 on human society are far-reaching. To estimate for the first time its impact on the bee research and education community, the Executive Committee of COLOSS (prevention of honey bee COlony LOSSes) developed an internet-based survey that was disseminated through COLOSS members to relevant stakeholders.

Pollinator declines can result in loss of pollination services which have important negative ecological and economic impacts that could significantly affect the maintenance of wild plant diversity.

Neonicotinoid pesticides pose severe threats to ecosystems worldwide, according to new information contained in an update to the world’s most comprehensive scientific review of the ecological impacts of systemic pesticides.

The mutualism between plants and their pollinators is likely to be disrupted by global warming that can cause mismatches between both halves of this interaction.

We explored the potential disruption of a ubiquitous mutualistic interaction of terrestrial habitats, that between plants and their animal pollinators, via climate change.

Glyphosate may affect bacterial symbionts of animals living near agricultural sites, including pollinators such as bees.

The reasons for relocating honey bee colonies are often economic: to provide pollination services and/or to follow honeydew and nectar flows as they occur.

This publication is a visual, practical manual on sustainable beekeeping for small-scale beekeepers in rural areas in Africa.

A “Great Pesticide Debate” was held on today, 16th of November in Brussels for stakeholders of
the agricultural and environmental sector in Europe.

Our results show that green roofs can be a suitable habitat for wild bee species living in urban areas but not so much for hoverflies.
