Population Structure of Melipona subnitida Ducke (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Meliponini) at the Southern Limit of its Distribution Based on Geometric Morphometrics of Forewings

Population Structure of Melipona subnitida Ducke (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Meliponini) at the Southern Limit of its Distribution Based on Geometric Morphometrics of Forewings

Bees provide fundamental services to humanity, and the world has been concerned about the rapid loss of genetic diversity that these organisms have been suffering. The stingless bee Melipona subnitida is endemic to northeastern Brazil and has high potential for the production of honey and wax; it is...
