Orchard Mason Bees
The orchard mason bee (Osmia lignaria) is a gentle beneficial insect that has potential as a pollinator of apples, cherries, and other tree fruits. It
is found throughout most of North America, particularly in wooded areas but often around homes in towns and cities. [eng]

Entomology - Removing bee stings
Conventional advice on immediate treatment of honey bee stings has emphasized that the sting should be scraped off, never
pinched. The morphology of the sting suggested no basis for this, and such advice is likely to slow down removal of the sting. [eng]

Survival of Honey Bees, Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae), Fed Various Pollen Sources
Twenty-five pure pollens plus several blends of pollen were fed as sole protein sources to honey bees, Apis mellifera L., and resultant survival of bees on
these diets was measured. Average increase in mean life span of bees on a pollen diet versus sugar water controls was 19.5 d, with a range from 3.9 d less than the controls
for Ambrosia to 40.6 d longer, for a five-pollen blend. Actual consumption of test pollen diets also varied dramatically among test pollens, with a mean consumption of 16.5
mg pollen per bee for the first 10 d and a range of 1.9-29.0 mg per bee. Pollens that induced decreased life span included Ambrosia, Uromyces (a rust spore), Typha, and
Kallstroemia; those that induced little increase in life span included Haplopappus, Baccharis, and Taraxacum; and those that induced the greatest increase in life span
included Ephedra, Prosopis, Rubus, Populus, and two blends of pollen. [eng]
