Diversity of Bee Pollinators and Flora in Cashew
Seven species of bee that maintained constancy on cashew flowers were identified from coastal Karnataka [(Pseudapis oxybeloides (Smith), Lasioglossum sp. and Halictus sp., Halictidae; Braunsapis sp., Ceratina smaragdula (F.) and Ceratina sp., Apidae)] and four species from coastal Tamil Nadu [(Cerat...
