Landscape influence on pollinator population genetic connectivity
By Schleimer, A. & Frantz, A. C.
Year: 2025
Open acces: yes
Language: English
Review on landscape features influencing the genetic connectivity of pollinator populations. While some species demonstrated genetic differentiation across tens of kilometres, others maintained connectivity across entire continents. Various landscape features, including water bodies and mountain ranges, often acted as barriers to gene flow, while the impacts of deforestation, agriculture, and urbanisation on genetic connectivity were mixed. The review is referring to the article of Schleimer et al. (2024) on Andrena cineraria populations in Luxembourg.Schleimer, A., & Frantz, A. C. (2025). Landscape influence on pollinator population genetic connectivity. Insect Conservation and Diversity. https://doi.org/10.1111/icad.12813Genetic connectivity is maintained in two insect pollinators across a human-altered landscape

The population connectivity of the Ashy mining bee Andrena cineraria (n = 201 specimens) was analysed over a fragmented landscape in Luxembourg. No signals were detected for isolation-by-distance nor genetic clustering. A large effective population size might have hindered this genetic approach to yet detect any recent signals (< 50 generations), and the authors recommend that such “lag times” should be considered in insect conservation.Schleimer, A., Wittische, J., Luttringer, A., Rupprecht, C., Andrási, B., Ariey, H., ... & Frantz, A. C. (2024). Genetic connectivity is maintained in two insect pollinators across a human‐altered landscape.

Identification and overview of shortfalls in European wild bees, i.e. absence of knowledge on geographic distributions, (functional) trait variation, population dynamics, evolutionary relationships, biotic interactions, species identity, and tolerance to abiotic conditions. The “Keartonian Impediment” was newly defined, which refers to the lack of high-resolution in situ images and illustrations with diagnostic traits for wild bees, directly affecting the other shortfalls. In the pan-European analysis conducted, the situation for Luxembourg’s wild bee fauna rates among the top 5 countries.Marshall, L., Leclercq, N., Carvalheiro, L. G., Dathe, H.

Overview of monitoring results for wasps and wild bees in the nature protection area “Haardt-Hesselsbierg-Staebierg” for the year 2018 (sampling in May, June and August). A total of 77 wild bee species (329 specimens) were recorded, including notable findings of Nomada facilis, Nomada cf. kohli, Osmia gallarum and Osmia rufohirta.Jakubzik, A. & Cölln, K. (2019).

Report of entomological findings from two field surveys in June 1954 near Burscheid, Rosport and Ahn. It includes records for e.g. Hoplitis mitis (recorded as Osmia mitis), Andrena curvungula, Hylaeus angustatus (recorded as Prosopis angustata) and Megachile alpicola.Petit, J. & Ramaut, J. (1957).

First record of Nomada kohli in Luxembourg. A single male was found on 5.-6.8.2019 in a pan trap of the national monitoring scheme of wild pollinators (MONIPOL) placed near Blaschette. Species level identity was obtained by morphology (MNHNL100058) and supported by DNA barcoding (BOLD-ID: MNPL001-21). This new species record brings the total number of Nomada species in the country to 40.Cantú-Salazar, L., Vray, S., L’Hoste, L., Jakubzik, A., & Herrera-Mesías, F. (2021).

A DNA metabarcoding pipeline was developed for the molecular identification of wild bees in Luxembourg. The completeness of available reference DNA barcodes for the known wild bee fauna was checked, and available metabarcoding primers and laboratory procedures were evaluated. 97% of the assessed wild bee species have at least one reference DNA barcode and the primer pair BF2/BR2 was identified as the most suitable. Primer bias must be taken into account and is particularly relevant for small taxa when they are rare in an otherwise biomass-rich sample.Herrera-Mesías, F., Jarboui, I. K. E., & Weigand, A. M.

Updated list of European bee and hoverfly species, including the updated national checklist for wild bees in Luxembourg. This list includes 346 wild bees and the honeybee, with several new records for the country (e.g. Lasioglossum angusticeps, L. pallens, L. pauperatum, Seladonia leucahenea, Xylocopa valga) which were made in the context of ongoing wild bee activities (wild bee atlas, MONIPOL, L.
