Dataset

data for functional group analyses

data of vouchered bees to test for differences between repeatedly sampled sites and single sample sites regarding abundance functional group composition. The four functional groups tested were diet (lecty), sociality, body size (size), and nesting substrate (nesting). Note that sociality was tested

Competition for bumblebee pollinators in Rocky Mountain plant communities

Meadoew plant communities at four sites in the Colorado Rocky Mountains were studied to evaluate the influence of competition for bumblebee pollinators. The niche relationships among plant species were characterized by overlap with respect to species of bumblebee visitors and times of flowering. Spe

Colorado checkerspot butterflies: isolation, neutrality, and the biospecies

Colorado Euphydryas editha populations completely isolated from well-studied West Coast populations for at least 7,000 generations show strong phenetic and, at seven of eight loci, genetic resemblance to them. The patterns of allozyme variation are not compatible with the hypothesis that the observe

The role of chemotactile stimuli in the oviposition preferences of Colias butterflies

It is stressed that chemotactile cues are involved only in the final step of oviposition, and that understanding foodplant choice in nature will require in-depth investigation into the mechanics of individual search processes.

Adaptation at specific loci. I. Natural selection on phosphoglucose isomerase of Colias butterflies: biochemical and population aspects

ABSTRACT Electrophoretic variants of phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) in Colias butterflies have been studied from field and laboratory viewpoints. The transmission pattern is that of a dimeric enzyme controlled by one structural gene locus. Populations usually harbor four to six allelic mobility clas
