The Impact of Prescribed Burning on Native Bee Communities (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Anthophila) in Longleaf Pine Savannas in the North Carolina Sandhills

ENVIRONMENTAL ENTOMOLOGY, 49(1), 211–219.

By: H. Moylett n, E. Youngsteadt n & C. Sorenson n

author keywords: native bees; fire; diversity; Pinus palustris; sandhills

TL;DR: Evaluating demographic and landownership attributes of private landowners and associated land-use characteristics and assessing regional differences in landowner attitudes and behavior toward wildlife management on private land found that landowners who depended on their property for earned annual income were less likely to consider the aesthetic or intrinsic value of wildlife on their land than those who did not rely on the land for income.
