It is well accepted nowadays that pollinators such as bees encounter various environmental pollutants when they collect food, water, or nesting materials or when they nest in contaminated soil. Such pollutants may be emitted from cars, factories, agriculture, etc. Exposure to this pollution may lead to undesirable toxicological effects in individuals or their colonies or nests. The most studied environmental pollutants affecting bees are plant protection products, also known as pesticides, used mainly to protect crops from pests and pathogens or remove weeds.","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"11 1","pages":"32 - 34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73590158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the SHB was introduced into the USA 25 years ago, it has established itself as an invasive species. Although it was not noticed as a threat until 1998, the consequences for apiculture have become much clearer since that time. The characteristic smell of collapsed colonies and the image of fermented honey flowing from honey houses, both due to SHB larval feeding behaviour, sticks to the memory of many (Figure 1). Since then, SHBs have spread to all continents, except Antarctica, and many islands globally (Figure 2). New introductions can trigger national eradication policies, which impact beekeepers economically and socially. Once established, the SHB requires beekeepers to adapt, for instance by applying controls to hives or changing basic hygienic measures in/around honey houses and apiaries. The SHB impacts honey bee colonies through mass reproduction, with thousands of larvae often causing the full structural collapse of the entire nest within two weeks. This can occur even in strong colonies. With the global spread, novel potential hosts, including species of other honey bees native to Asia, bumble bees, and stingless bees, have also been exposed to the SHB; but the consequences and possible impact of which are mostly unclear and require further attention. While SHBs might not be a priority for many beekeepers now, studies indicate that climate change could alter the impact of SHB distribution detrimentally (Cornelissen et al., 2019). Therefore, knowledge gaps abound and range from appropriate policy requirements, including monitoring and control, to many ecological conundrums. These gaps led to the development of the SHB TF.","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"62 1","pages":"29 - 31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75229870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among the 13 subspecies occurring in Asia, only the northernmost subspecies, Vespa velutina nigrithorax (du Buysson, 1905), was accidentally introduced from China to other parts of the world: South Korea in 2003, Europe in 2004 and Japan in 2012 (Laurino et al., 2019). The first sighting of the presence of V. velutina in Europe occurred in France, near the city of Bordeaux. Probably the introduction was caused by a single queen transported by a cargo ship from China (Monceau et al., 2014). From France, the species reached Spain (Navarra province and Basque country in 2010, Galicia and Catalonia in 2012, Majorca Island in 2015), Portugal (Minho province in 2011), Belgium (Flobecq in the Hainaut province in 2011), Italy (Liguria region in 2012), and Germany (Rhineland-Palatinate in 2014). More recently, the species was observed in the United Kingdom and Channel Islands (2016), Netherlands (2017), Switzerland (2017) and Luxembourg (2020) (Laurino et al., 2019). The rapid spread of V. velutina in Europe is associated with a dispersal pattern that encompasses natural diffusion and human-mediated transportation (Robinet et al., 2017). Characteristics of the Species V. velutina is characterised by a dark brown, almost black thorax. The first three abdominal segments are dark brown with a yellow or yellow-brown backside margin; the fourth segment is almost entirely yellow-brown, with a reddish-brown end of the abdomen. The size of the workers ranges between 19 and 30 mm, with a wingspan of 37-50 mm. The front part of the head is yellow-orange, and the antennae are black at the ends and brown on the bottom. The legs are dark, except for the ends (tarsi) that are yellow, hence the common name Asian yellow-legged hornet (Figure 1a). The males of V. velutina can be recognised from workers or queens by the absence of the sting and bigger antennas (males have one more antennomere than females). Workers and queens are very similar, although the queens are generally heavier; the section analysis of the reproductive organs allows best to distinguish between castes (Monceau et al., 2014).","PeriodicalId":8783,"journal":{"name":"Bee World","volume":"1 1","pages":"26 - 28"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89905077","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As a major environmental driver of bee health (Brodschneider & Crailsheim, 2010; Steinhauer et al., 2018), nutrition can act alone or interactively with other stressors (Crone & Grozinger, 2021; Tosi et al., 2017).

The topic of this Core Project, colony losses, is reflected in the acronym COLOSS, underlining its importance to the association! Since the very beginning of COLOSS as an EU COST-funded action in 2008, a working group has been dedicated to collect standardised data on honey bee colony losses. This group was termed “monitoring & diagnosis” and was first led and largely shaped by Romée van der Zee from the Netherlands. It is important also to note the involvement of other members who have been very active from the early days until today.
