    Abstract The aim of this study was to describe Scaptotrigona nigrohirta sp. nov. and Scaptotrigona hylaeana sp. nov., in order to make their names valid, since at least one of these species has already been widely studied and cited, however, never been formally validated. Also, we have added some comparative notes among some species.

    Abstract The taxonomic history of Trigona latitarsis Friese, 1900 and its clarification based on the observation of the types and literature data are treated in this study. The paper discusses the validity of the previously proposed lectotype, deposited in the ZMB (Berlin, Germany). Based on the type series deposited in HNHM (Budapest, Hungary) as well as the original description, a new lectotype and 15 paralectotypes from Amazon forest (São Paulo de Olivença, Amazonas) are designated. Data on the geographic distribution of Scaura latitarsis (Friese, 1900) are provided.

    Abstract The aim of this study was to expand occurrence records of Lestrimelitta rufa (Friese, 1903) to the Brazilian Northeast and to document the cleptobiotic behavior of this robber species in colonies of Melipona quinquefasciata Lepeletier, 1836. Two attacks were carried out in a meliponary in the county of Barbalha (Ceará, Brazil), where pot and larval food were sacked. Even with direct confrontation between invading and inquiline bees, there was a total loss of one of the attacked nests because robber workers remained insistently in search of resources of these nests during the attacks.

    Abstract Resumo. A taxa de emergência de abelhas adultas, a de parasitismo e a razão sexual entre machos e fêmeas foram medidas a partir do monitoramento de abelhas Centris analis (Fabricius) em ninhos armadilha de cartolina preta por um período de 13 meses, entre outubro de 2010 a outubro de 2011, em ambiente urbano de Fortaleza, Ceará. Os ninhos foram vistoriados mensalmente e quando concluídos, foram transferidos para garrafas PET na mesma área experimental até a emergência dos adultos. Foram fundados 45 ninhos, onde emergiram 152 indivíduos. As fêmeas de C. analis (95,66%) preferiram o ninho de diâmetro 5 mm. A taxa de emergência foi de 3,3 abelhas por ninho onde até 10 indivíduos foram registrados por ninho. A razão sexual foi de 1 macho para 1,4 fêmeas. Em fevereiro e setembro houve picos de emergência de abelhas adultas e isso pode estar relacionado com a disponibilidade dos recursos florais. A taxa de parasitismo foi de 3,94%, onde 8 ninhos foram cleptoparasitados com emergência de 15 indivíduos, com representantes de Megachilidae, Chrysididae (Hymenoptera) e Bombyliidae (Diptera). A adição dos dados obtidos nesse estudo em comparação com dados já publicados para C. analis podem ajudar a elucidar aspectos biológicos dessa espécie. Nesting aspects of Centris analis (Fabricius) (Hymenoptera: Apidae: Centridini) Abstract. The rate of emergence of adult bees, the parasitism and sex ratio between males and females were measured by monitoring specimens of Centris analis (Fabricius) in trap nests of black cardboard, for a period of 13 months, from October/2010 to October/2011 in Fortaleza, Ceará State. The nests were monitored monthly and when completed, it was removed to PET bottles in the same experimental area until adult emergence. Were founded 45 nests of which 152 adults emerged. The females of C. analis (95.66 %) preferred the nests with diameter of 5 mm diameter. The emergency rate was 3.3 bees per nest where up to 10 individuals were recorded sharing the same nest. The sex ratio was 1 male to 1.4 females. In ...

    Abstract Pollination deficit could cause low yields in cashew (Anacardium occidentale) and it is possible that deforestation surrounding cashew plantations may prevent effective pollinators from visiting cashew flowers and contribute to this deficit. In the present work, we investigated the proximity effect of small and large forest fragments on the abundance and flower visits by feral Apis mellifera and wild native pollinators to cashew flowers and their interactions with yield in cashew plantations. Cashew nut yield was highest when plantations bordered a small forest fragment and were close to the large forest fragment. Yield from plantations that did not border small forest fragments but were close to the large forest fragment did not differ to yield from plantations at a greater distance to the large forest fragment. Flower visits by wild native pollinators, mainly Trigona spinipes, were negatively affected by distance to the large forest remnant and their numbers were directly correlated to nut yield. The number of A. mellifera visiting cashew flowers did not change significantly with distance to forest fragments, nor was it correlated with yield. We conclude that increasing the number of wild pollinator visits may increase yield, and proximity to large forest fragments are important for this.

    Abstract This paper provided a list of all new Brazilian Hexapoda species described in 2020. Furthermore, based on the information extracted by this list, we tackled additional questions regarding the taxa, the specialists involved in the species descriptions as well as the journals in which those papers have been published. We recorded a total of 680 new Brazilian species of Hexapoda described in 2020, classified in 245 genera, 112 families and 18 orders. These 680 species were published in a total of 2019 articles comprising 423 different authors residing in 27 countries. Only 30% of these authors are women, which demonstrates an inequality regarding sexes. In relation to the number of authors by species, the majority of the new species had two authors and the maximum of authors by species was five. We also found inequalities in the production of described species regarding the regions of Brazil, with Southeast and South leading. The top 10 institutions regarding productions of new species have four in the Southeast, two at South and with one at North Region being the outlier of this pattern. Out of the total 219 published articles, Zootaxa dominated with 322 described species in 95 articles. The average impact factor was of 1.4 with only seven articles being published in Impact Factors above 3, indicating a hardship on publishing taxonomic articles in high-impact journals. The highlight of this paper is that it is unprecedent, as no annual record of Hexapoda species described was ever made in previous years to Brazil.
