The challenges of bee research in Asia are unique and severe, reflecting different cultures, landscapes, faunas. Strategies frameworks developed North America or Europe may not prove applicable. Virtually none these species have been assessed by the IUCN there is a paucity public data on even basics distribution. If we do know present, their distribution threats, cannot protect them, but our knowledge base vanishingly small compared to rest world. To better understand meet challenges, this...

Abstract Bees and the ecosystem services they provide are vital to urban ecosystems, but little is understood about their distributions, particularly in Asian tropics. This largely due taxonomic impediments limited inventorying, monitoring, digitization of occurrence records. While expert collections (EC) demonstrably insufficient by themselves as a data source model understand bee boom community science (CS) areas provides an untapped opportunity learn distributions within our cities. We...

We record Dolichopoda lustriae Rampini & Di Russo, 2008 (Orthoptera: Ensifera: Rhaphidophoridae) from the Pindus mountain range in Epirus, Greece, more than 200 km to north of type locality Aetolia-Acarnania. show that this species has an unusually broad distribution for a Balkan cave cricket, and can also live independently caves, instead inhabiting crevices large rock formations. found D. be sympatric with Troglophilus zorae Karaman Pavićević, 2011, whose presence Greece is recorded first...

Bursinia genei (Dufour, 1849) is the most widespread species of planthopper subfamily Orgeriinae (Hemiptera: Fulgoromorpha: Dictyopharidae) in Europe, found from Iberian Peninsula to Western Balkans. However, its diagnostically important genitalia and biology have been insufficiently described. We employ state-of-the-art synchrotron X-ray microtomography photomicrography re-describe B. genei, study morphology both sexes unprecedented detail. By examining specimens across distribution we find...
