Floral choices, parasites and micro-organisms in natural populations of bumblebees (Apidae: Hymenoptera) in Ankara province

Öz:

Bu çalışmada Ankara'da saptanan farklı bombus arısı türlerinin çiçek tercihleri ile değişik parazit ve mikro-organizmalar ile etkileşimleri birlikte incelenmiştir. Acarus farris (Oudemans, 1905) (Acaridae) türü akarın hareketli hipopeal formunun Bombus Latreille ve Psithyrus Lepeletier cinslerine ait 21 türden Bombus (Bombus) terrestris, Megabombus (Megabombus) argillaceus, Megabombus (Thoracobombus) zonatus ve Pyrobombus (Sibiricobombus) niveatus kraliçelerinde foretik olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Nosema bombide B. terrestris türünde internal parazit olarak gözlenmiştir. Ayrıca Allantonematidae (Tylenchida) familyasından bir nematod türü de Megabombus (Thoracobombus) sylvarum citrinofasciatus kraliçelerinden izole edilmiştir. İncelenen Bombus ve Psithyrus türlerinin çiçek tercihleri de çeşitlilik ve tür zenginliği indeksleri kullanılarak ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. Anchusa leptophylla, Onopordum anatolicum, Echium italicum, Trifolium pratense, Galega officinalis ve Astragalus sp. türlerinin, Ankara bölgesinde bombus arıları tarafından en çok tercih edilen bitki türleri olduğu saptanmıştır.

Öz:

In this study, the flower choices of different bumblebee species in Ankara province regarding their associations among various parasites and micro-organisms were determined. A total of 21 different species of the genera Bombus Latreille and Psithyrus Lepeletier were examined. The motile hypopus of the mite species Acarus farris (Oudemans, 1905) (Acaridae) was found to be phoretic on Bombus (Bombus) terrestris, Megabombus (Megabombus) argillaceus, Megabombus (Thoracobombus) zonatus and Pyrobombus (Sibiricobombus) niveatus queens. Nosema bombi was also determined to be an internal parasite of B. terrestris. Finally, a nematode species belonging to the family Allantonematidae (Tylenchida) was isolated from Megabombus (Thoracobombus) sylvarum citrinofasciatus. The flower choices of the discussed Bombus and Psithyrus species were examined by using diversity and richness indices. It was observed that Anchusa leptophylla, Onopordum anatolicum, Echium italicum, Trifolium pratense, Galega officinalis and Astragalus sp. were the most preferred plant species of bumblebees in Ankara province.
