Foraging by honeybees on Carduus acanthoides: pattern and efficiency

Abstract. The relationship between the fluctuation in total quantity of sugar available in the nectar of Carduus acanthoides inflorescences and the foraging behaviour of honeybees Apis mellifera ligustica was studied in a patch under natural conditions. Every day, three inflorescence populations coe...
