TL;DR: It is argued that declining floral resources because of warmer summers have favored generalist foraging, leading to a mismatch between shorter-tongued bees and the longer-tubed plants they once pollinated.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that traits under sexual selection during pollen pickup vary among pollinators, while natural selection for pollen defense is nil in T. ceratophorum.

TL;DR: Flights of bees during partial phases of the eclipse lasted longer than flights made under full sun, showing that behavioral plasticity matched bee flight properties to changes in light intensity during the eclipse.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors highlight the value of non-lethal sampling alternatives and underscore the need for proactive, empirically informed sampling guidelines that reflect taxon-specific conservation needs, and raise as an emerging concern the potentially damaging yet unknown impacts of contemporary specimen collection on wild insect populations.

TL;DR: In this paper , the effect of the mentor effect on self-fertilization of T. ceratophorum was investigated in natural populations of the self-incompatible native dandelion, where selfing only occurs in association with hybridization from exotic T. officinale.
