Morphology and temporal evolution of ground-nesting bee burrows created by solitary and social species quantified through X-ray imaging
Most research on wild bees has focused on their role as pollinators, while their importance as soil ecosystem engineers has been largely overlooked, despite the fact that most species nest in the soil. There is limited quantitative knowledge regarding the architecture of nests created by wild bees a...
