The rusty patched bumblebee is the first native bee listed to be near extinction. The population of the species had a significant decline for the last 20 years.
Ultrasensitive hairs offer explanation as to how bumblebees pick up weak electrical signals emitted by flowers according to University of Bristol researchers. Previously, scientists think that the ability to sense natural electrical fields was confined only to aquatic creatures.
Scientists show that climate change can "decouple important mutualisms" between insects as well as plants.
A new study reveals that bumblebees are less stable and more maneuverable when flying with nectar while stability is increased when flying with pollen.
Two new studies have showed that neonicotinoids pesticides get bees hooked and eventually harm their proliferation.
