EFFECTS OF NECTAR VARIANCE ON LEARNING BY BUMBLE BEES

ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, 45(1), 37–41.

By: R. Dukas n & L. Real n

TL;DR: The results suggest that under increasing nectar variance bees do not increase sampling period, but instead base their foraging decisions on the less reliable information from a certain maximum number of flowers sampled. (via Semantic Scholar)

EFFECTS OF RECENT EXPERIENCE ON FORAGING DECISIONS BY BUMBLE BEES

OECOLOGIA, 94(2), 244–246.

By: R. Dukas n & L. Real*

author keywords: INFORMATION PROCESSING; DECISION RULES; FORAGING; FLIGHT DISTANCE; BUMBLE BEES
TL;DR: Data from previous experiments suggest that bumble bees can integrate information from at least three flowers for making a subsequent foraging decision, and the existence of memory for floral characteristics at least at this scale may have significance for floral selection in natural environments.

LEARNING CONSTRAINTS AND FLORAL CHOICE BEHAVIOR IN BUMBLE BEES

ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, 46(4), 637–644.

By: R. Dukas n & L. Real n

TL;DR: The results suggest that when bees forage on an increasing number of floral types, their ability to discriminate between these and non-rewarding types is reduced considerably. (via Semantic Scholar)

LEARNING FORAGING TASKS BY BEES - A COMPARISON BETWEEN SOCIAL AND SOLITARY SPECIES

ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR, 42, 269–276.

By: R. Dukas n & L. Real*

TL;DR: It is suggested that social bees have better learning capabilities compared with solitary bees, and both species showed similar levels of overnight memory retention. (via Semantic Scholar)
