Pero las abejas mel\u00edferas representan solo una peque\u00f1a parte del mundo de las abejas.<\/p> <p>Estados Unidos alberga alrededor de 4,000 especies de abejas nativas, y la mayor\u00eda no vive en grandes colonias ni produce miel. Muchas viven solas, anidan en el suelo, tallos huecos, madera o cavidades naturales, y dependen de h\u00e1bitats espec\u00edficos y plantas con flores.<\/p><\/div><span href=\"\" target=\"\" rel=\"\" style=\"text-decoration: none;\"><h3 style=\"color: rgb(78, 125, 58); text-align: left; margin: 0px;\">Abejas mel\u00edferas<\/h3><\/span><div style=\"margin: 10px 0px 0px; text-align: left;\"><p>La abeja melifera occidental, Apis mellifera, no es nativa de Am\u00e9rica del Norte. Los colonos europeos trajeron abejas mel\u00edferas a Am\u00e9rica del Norte en la d\u00e9cada de 1600. Hoy en d\u00eda, muchos agricultores estadounidenses dependen de ellas. Por ejemplo, los apicultores trasladan las colonias a los huertos cuando florecen los \u00e1rboles frutales.<\/p> <p>En verano, una colonia de abejas mel\u00edferas puede tener decenas de miles de obreras. Los apicultores pueden dividir una colonia, trasladarla, controlar los par\u00e1sitos y registrar sus p\u00e9rdidas.<\/p> <p>Por ejemplo, un apicultor puede reemplazar una colonia perdida con una divisi\u00f3n de una que est\u00e1 sana. Esto no nos dice nada sobre si una abeja silvestre ha regresado a un prado donde alguna vez nidific\u00f3.<\/p> <p>Las abejas mel\u00edferas enfrentan graves desaf\u00edos debido a los \u00e1caros Varroa, pat\u00f3genos, nutrici\u00f3n, pesticidas y otras presiones, pero las abejas mel\u00edferas manejadas en los Estados Unidos est\u00e1n <strong>no figura como en peligro de extinci\u00f3n a nivel federal.<\/strong><\/p><\/div><span href=\"\" target=\"\" rel=\"\" style=\"text-decoration: none;\"><h3 style=\"color: rgb(78, 125, 58); text-align: left; margin: 0px;\">Abejorros<\/h3><\/span><div style=\"margin: 10px 0px 0px; text-align: left;\"><p>Los abejorros son polinizadores nativos y desempe\u00f1an un papel importante tanto en los ecosistemas naturales como en la agricultura.<\/p> <p>A diferencia de la mayor\u00eda de las abejas nativas, los abejorros viven en sociedad formando colonias. Sus colonias son mucho m\u00e1s peque\u00f1as que las de las abejas mel\u00edferas y por lo general duran solo una temporada. Al finalizar la temporada, la mayor parte de la colonia muere y las reinas reci\u00e9n producidas sobreviven para establecer nuevas colonias el a\u00f1o siguiente.<\/p> <p>Las abejas de trompo tambi\u00e9n pueden realizar la polinizaci\u00f3n con sonido, un comportamiento en el que la abeja vibra una flor para liberar el polen. Las abejas mel\u00edferas no pueden realizar este tipo de polinizaci\u00f3n. La polinizaci\u00f3n con sonido es particularmente importante para plantas como el tomate, la arce azul y la arce negra.<\/p> <p>Entonces, \u00bfcu\u00e1l abej\u00f3n viste? Una foto de la parte posterior y lateral, junto con la ubicaci\u00f3n y la fecha, puede ayudar al observador a restringir la especie.<\/p><\/div><span href=\"\" target=\"\" rel=\"\" style=\"text-decoration: none;\"><h3 style=\"color: rgb(78, 125, 58); text-align: left; margin: 0px;\">Abejas nativas solitarias<\/h3><\/span><div style=\"margin: 10px 0px 0px; text-align: left;\"><p>La mayor\u00eda de las especies nativas de abejas viven sin una colonia.<\/p> <p>Una hembra solitaria generalmente construye y abastece su propio nido. Dependiendo de la especie, ese nido puede estar bajo tierra, dentro de tallos huecos, en agujeros existentes en la madera u otras cavidades naturales peque\u00f1as.<\/p> <p>Por ejemplo, muchas abejas masoneras y abejas cortadoras de hojas utilizan cavidades existentes. Las abejas mineras y las abejas de calabaza construyen sus propios nidos.<\/p> <p>Considere una abeja minera hembra.
