例句 | The bee, Megachile pluto, also known as Wallace's giant bee, is a massive unit. The parable of the world’s largest bee 2022-03-31T04:00:00Z In January, an international team of conservationists found a Megachile pluto, as the species is called, in the wild. The World’s Largest Bee Is Not Extinct 2019-02-21T05:00:00Z He observed the life cycle of a leaf-cutter bee, later named after him — Megachile willughbiella. The forgotten founder of ornithology 2018-05-01T04:00:00Z And Megachile campanulae, which typically seals the cells of its nest with plant and tree resins, had used plastic-based sealants, including caulk. Bees Living In Cities Are Building Their Homes with Plastic 2014-06-11T04:00:00Z A hymenopterous relative of the Bees, the Megachile, cuts out in rose-leaves fragments of appropriate form which it bears away to a small hole in a tree, an abandoned mouse nest or some similar cavity. The Industries of Animals Further, the sweet pea is visited by the leaf-cutter bee, Megachile, which, unlike the honey bee, is able to depress the keel and gather pollen. Mendelism Third Edition The industry of the Megachiles, for instance, consists of manufacturing wallets with bits of leaves; that of the Cotton-bees of making bags of wadding with the flock gathered from certain plants. The Glow-Worm and Other Beetles The implement of the Megachile, the rose-fly, is by no means appropriate to its industry; "yet the perfectly circular fragments of leaves have the precise perfection of form that a punch would give." Fabre, Poet of Science A like prosperity awaits her when she usurps the provisions of Megachile sericans. More Hunting Wasps I remembered finding, at rare intervals, nests of both the Anthidium and the Megachile in the hollows of cut reeds. Bramble-Bees and Others If the standard is not erected, it is unlikely to have been visited by Megachile. Mendelism Third Edition For answers to these questions we may look, above all, to the Leaf-cutting Bees, the Megachiles. Bramble-Bees and Others The author of the mischief is a grey-clad Bee, a Megachile. Bramble-Bees and Others Instead of a general scabbard of leaves, afterwards subdivided into compartments by transverse partitions, the Megachile constructs a string of separate wallets, each of which is finished before the next is begun. Bramble-Bees and Others The invitation was accepted: Osmiae, Anthidia and Megachiles came in fairly large numbers, especially the first, to benefit by the queer installation. Bramble-Bees and Others Like the great majority of the Osmiae, the Megachiles do not understand the art of making themselves a home straight away: they want a borrowed lodging, which may vary considerably in character. Bramble-Bees and Others But this line of defence is not admissible in the Megachile's case. Bramble-Bees and Others One of them provides me with seventeen cells, the highest number appearing in my census of the Megachile clan. Bramble-Bees and Others The leaf-stalk is clipped with the scissors and, without more ado, the Megachile retires the richer by a first-rate bit of material. Bramble-Bees and Others In this way I obtained some magnificent series of Anthidia and Megachiles, running up to a dozen. Bramble-Bees and Others Does each species of Megachile keep to a single plant, or has it a definite botanical domain wherein to exercise its liberty of choice? Bramble-Bees and Others Here is the flora of the Megachiles in my neighbourhood, a very incomplete flora and doubtless capable of considerable amplification by future researches. Bramble-Bees and Others Incomplete though it be, this list tells us that the Megachiles do not have exclusive botanical tastes. Bramble-Bees and Others One could get an excellent piece, without further labour, by merely cutting the leaf-stalk of the box, as Megachile sericans does with her paliurus. Bramble-Bees and Others The Megachiles build their honey-jars with disks cut out of leaves; certain Anthidia make felted cotton wallets; others fashion pots out of resin. Bramble-Bees and Others In short, apart from the questions of texture and proximity to the nest, the Megachile's choice, it seems to me, must depend upon whether a particular shrub is plentiful or not. Bramble-Bees and Others Hardly was a blossom out, when the ardent Megachiles came and scalloped it into crescents. Bramble-Bees and Others In the thicket chosen as a pinking-establishment, the Megachile sees but one thing: leaves useful for her work. Bramble-Bees and Others Where again did the Silvery Megachile, for whom I created an exotic shrubbery, make the acquaintance of the lopezia, which comes from Mexico? Bramble-Bees and Others What model has the Megachile when cutting her neat ellipses out of the delicate material for her wallets, the robinia-leaves? Bramble-Bees and Others The Megachiles offer us one and a very great one: the indefinite variation of their materials. Bramble-Bees and Others Time would fail her, even as it would fail a Megachile who, lacking the Capricorn's chamber, had herself to dig a home in the trunk of the oak. Bramble-Bees and Others I see no other reason for this need of a gratuitous lodging for the Megachile's leafy basket or the Anthidia's cotton purses. Bramble-Bees and Others Sometimes, the Megachile has time to alight and insert her head into the mouth of the pit. Bramble-Bees and Others The Megachile's scissors, so difficult to wield on anything not firmly held, would do equally bad work. Bramble-Bees and Others Let a Megachile, returning with her leafy disk in her legs, go into the wrong basement: she would be very soon dislodged! Bramble-Bees and Others |
