Termites raise skyscraping nests; honeybees fashion mesmerisingly geometric combs. The true master builders of the insect world, however, are the hundreds of species of stingless bee econ.st/4aODEJE 🐝

I am incredibly happy that our paper on nest architecture in stingless bees published in Current Biology got some attention! Here, a very nice article written by The Economist

📢🐝🌱Our new paper on spillover effects of invasives is out today in Proceedings B!

We used a manupulative field experiment to show that Acacias can disrupt the plant-pollinator networks and seed production of endangered Fynbos habitats.
