Pollen Specialist Bees

Roughly 30% of the ~1,800 species of bees native to the Central United States are pollen specialists. Pollen specialist bees coevolved a continuum of generic to specific associations with flowering host plants or pollenizers (Cane & Sipes 2006; Danforth et al 2019; Hurd et al. 1980; Linsley & MacSwain 1958; Robertson 1925; Wright 2018). Polylectic bees or polyleges forage pollen from unrelated plants, while oligolectic bees or oligoleges collect pollen from one family or a few related genera of plants and monolectic bees or monoleges only gather pollen from a single plant genus or species (Cane 2020; Cane & Sipes 2006; Robertson 1925).

Pollen specialist associations can mutually benefit both bees and flowers from improved foraging effectiveness and efficiency, pollen digestibility, and pollination rates, but foraging restrictions may create greater susceptibility to harm from pollination or pollenization shortages due to habitat degradation or loss, pesticides, invasive species, and climate change (Minckley et al. 1994; Packer et al. 2005; Rafferty et al. 2015). Therefore, contemporary anthropogenic threats in the Central United States potentially imperil native pollen specialist bee species and their endemic, indigenous host plants with population declines and extinctions through loss of species diversity.

Methods

Records of native pollen specialist bees captured or observed foraging flowers of host plants were compiled from Discover Life (Ascher & Pickering 2020), peer reviewed articles (Austin 1978; Bouseman & LaBerge 1978; Brooks & Griswold 1988; Cockerell 1916, 1919; Cresson 1878; Daly 1973; Danforth 1994; Donovan 1977; Griswold 1993; Griswold & Miller 2010; Hurd et al. 1980; LaBerge 1963, 1967, 1969, 1971a, 1971b, 1973, 1977, 1980, 1985, 1986, 1989; LaBerge & Bouseman 1970; LaBerge & Ribble 1972, 1975; Lanham, 1981; Linsley & MacSwain 1958; McGinley 2003; Michener 1939; Minckley et al. 1994, 2000; Moldenke 1976, 1979; Neff 2003; Neff & Larkin 2003; Neff & Rozen 1995; Parys et al. 2018; Portman, Neff, & Griswold 2016; Provancher, 1895; Ribble 1974; Robertson 1926, 1928, 1929; Rozen 1958; Snelling 1983; Thorp 1969; Timberlake 1954, 1956, 1958, 1960, 1962, 1964, 1968, 1975, 1980l Wright 2018), technical bulletins (Danforth 1996; Grigarick & Stange 1968; Hurd & Michener 1955; Krombein et al. 1979; LaBerge 1967; Mitchell 1960, 1962; Ribble 1968; Stephen 1954; Thorp & LaBerge 2005; Timberlake 1953), and personal communications.

If bees and plants were indigenous to the Central United States without human intervention, then bees and plants were defined "native". Definitions of bee conservation status were averaged across ranges. If there were on average: between one and 100 records, then bees were defined "Rare"; between one and 500 records, then bees were defined "Uncommon-Rare"; around 500 records, then bees were defined "Uncommon"; between 500 and 1000 records, then bees were defined "Common-Uncommon"; around 1000 or more records, then bees were defined "Common". Conservation status may vary according to species-specific distributions and dispersions. Bee-flower records were compared with state-level plant distributions from the USDA Plants Database (USDA NRCS 2020) and county-level distributions from The Biota of North America Program (Kartesz, BONAP 2015). This study includes only host plant genera that are native and documented as present in at least one county of at least one of the seventeen regional states: Arkansas, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, and Wisconsin. Because plant taxonomy has undergone major recent changes, many names have been updated compared to those published in the original literature of bee-flower associations.

Results

Pollen specialist bee species of the Central United States were alphabetically tabulated with associated host plant families in Table 1. Six families, 10 subfamilies, 14 tribes, two subtribes, 45 genera, 104 subgenera, and 453 species of pollen specialist bees were listed. The bee family with the most pollen specialists was Andrenidae (255 spp.), while the most speciose subfamily was Panurginae (142 spp.), tribe was Panurgini (98 spp.), subtribe was Perditina (95 spp.), genus was Andrena (113 spp.), and subgenus was Perdita (52 spp.). The most recurrent authorities (n = 46 authors) were Theodore Dru Allison Cockerell (1866–1948, 275 spp.), Ezra Townsend Cresson (1838–1926, 150 spp.), Philip Hunter Timberlake (1883–1981, 84 spp.), and Charles Robertson (1858–1935, 79 spp.). Most species were first described during years 1878 (73 spp.), 1896 (60 spp.), and 1897 (49 spp.).

The states most inhabited by pollen specialist bees were: Texas (320 spp.; 41% spp.), Kansas (174 spp.; 45% spp.), Nebraska (167 spp.; 39% spp.), Illinois (147 spp.; 34% spp.), North Dakota (130 spp.; 37% spp.), South Dakota (122 spp.; 37% spp.), Indiana (107 spp.; 27% spp.), Missouri (105 spp.; 38% spp.), Michigan (101 spp.; 23% spp.), Wisconsin (98 spp.; 25% spp.), Oklahoma (97 spp.; 43% spp.), Minnesota (90 spp.; 27% spp.), Ohio (83 spp.; 25% spp.), Iowa (79 spp.; 35% spp.), Tennessee (76 spp.; 28% spp.), Arkasas (66 spp.; 34% spp.), and Kentucky (33 spp.; 22% spp.). Of the 453 species of pollen specialist bees, 149 spp. were recorded only in Texas, while only three spp. were recorded in all 17 states: Andrena (Micrandrena) nigrae Robertson, 1905, Melissodes (Eumelissodes) agilis Cresson, 1878, and Svastra (Epimelissodes) obliqua (Say, 1837). Overall, 310 bee species were considered "Rare", while 99 spp. were “Uncommon-Rare", 48 spp. were "Uncommon", 17 spp. were “Common-Uncommon", and eight spp. were "Common". The months of activity for pollen specialist bees relative to associated host plant flowering phenology were August (282 spp.), July (250 spp.), June (236 spp.), September (221 spp.), May (213 spp.), April (179 spp.), March (92 spp.), October (89 spp.), November (23 spp.), February (6 spp.), December (6 spp.), and January (1 spp.). Oftentimes, pollen specialist bees had only three month (145 spp.) or two month (117 spp.) flight periods.

The most recurrent host plant families among pollen specialist bee species were Asteraceae (201 bee spp.) and Fabaceae (29 spp.). The top 25 most recurrent host plant genera (N = ~250) associated with pollen specialist bee species were: Helianthus L. (103 spp.), Grindelia Willd. (67 spp.), Heterotheca Cass. (63 spp.), Solidago L. (57 spp.), Verbesina L. (54 spp.), Chrysothamnus Nutt. (51 spp.), Symphyotrichum Nees (50 spp.), Gutierrezia Lag. (49 spp.), Ericameria Nutt. (46 spp.), Baileya Harv. & A. Gray ex A. Gray (36 spp.), Machaeranthera Nees (34 spp.), Rudbeckia L. (34 spp.), Erigeron L. (32 spp.), Cirsium Mill. (31 spp.), Coreopsis L. (29 spp.), Senecio L. (22 spp.), Salix L. (19 spp.), Prosopis L. (17 spp.), Bidens L. (18 spp.), Dalea L. (19 spp.), Bidens L. (18 spp.), Isocoma Nutt. (17 spp.), Encelia Adans. (16 spp.), Heliomeris Nutt. (16 spp.), Ratibida Raf. (16 spp.), and Baccharis L. (14 spp.).

Recommendations

Pollen specialist bees of the Central United States were most often mesolectic on Asteraceae (201 spp.), Fabaceae (29 spp.), Brassicaceae (9 spp.), Malvaceae (7 spp.), and Cactaceae (5 spp.) and monolectic on Salix L. (19 spp.), Oenothera L. (11 spp.), Phacelia Juss. (7 spp.), Physalis L. (7 spp.), Vaccinium L. (7 spp.), Cucurbita L. (6 spp.), Larrea (6 spp.), Chamaesaracha (A. Gray) Benth. (5 spp.), Cornus (Swida) L. (4 spp.), and Lysimachia L. (4 spp.). Twenty-five unique relationships occured between individual monoleges and single host plants. Pollenizers were often either community dominant species or had ephemeral early/late season blooms, crepuscular blossoms, and odd floral morphologies.

Nearly 60% of the pollen specialist bees listed were rare. Pollinator habitat conservation and enhancement projects should prioritize practices that foster diverse communities of native pollen specialist bees and associated host plants (Fowler 2016a, 2016b). Site-specific practices including beetle banks, companion plants, cover crops, field borders, hedgerows, insectaries, meadows, pastures, prairies, and riparian buffers should be composed primarily of pollenizers for oligoleges and monoleges and secondarily of pollen and nectar plants for polyleges. Regional native plant horticulturists and nurseries should prioritize the propagation of ecoregional pollenizers for pollen specialist bees.

Conservation practices can protect native pollen specialist bees from population declines and extinctions, while identically supporting other managed and wild beneficial insects, providing wildlife habitat, reducing weeds and erosion, improving soil health and water quality, regulating pests, offering harvestable products, and bettering aesthetics (Garibaldi et al. 2014; Kleijn et al. 2015; Wratten et al. 2012). Therefore, habitat conservation and enhancement for native pollen specialist bees works synergistically to promote strong environmental, social, and economic sustainability in the Central United States.
