盗寄生性蜜蜂--艳斑蜂的行为生物学观察

Behavioral biology of a species of cleptoparasitic bee,Nomada sp.

江西宜春、湖南郴州普遍存在一类"杜鹃蜂"——艳斑蜂Nomada sp.,该蜂对油茶地蜂Andrenaca mellia Wu有盗寄生行为。作者于2006年在江西宜春为期3个月的野外观察,对观察到的该种艳斑蜂的寄主、艳斑蜂侵入寄主巢穴的行为、艳斑蜂的繁殖行为、艳斑蜂的生存行为、艳斑蜂的生存策略、艳斑蜂的种群生态等6个方面作出分析。

Cuckoo bee, Nomada sp., was found to be a common cleptoparasitic bee to Andrena camellia Wu in Yichun （Jiangxi） and Chenzhou （Hunan）. After working in the field in Yichun and Chenzhou for more than 3 months in 2006, we analyzed and summarized the host, the intruding behavior into its host＇s nest, the breeding behavior, the living behavior, the survival strategy, and the population dynamics of Nomada sp. Finally, we proposed further plans to study this group and cleptoparasitism.
