The objective of my PhD is to understand how habitat alterations affect the foraging patterns and resource intake of stingless bee colonies. Therefore, I explore site-specific and species-specific differences in resource intake of stingless bees along a disturbance gradient in a tropical ecosystem in Ecuador.
