Resource Partitioning in Bumble Bees: The Role of Behavioral Factors
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Small Bombus ternarius workers for age most frequently on the distal parts of goldenrod flower clusters when large B. terricola workers are present, so that B. Ternarius can exploit resources whose availability changes constantly because of fluctuating numbers of larger consumers.
