Description

This occurrence dataset encompasses the specimens identified and reviewed by Bohart and Griswold in their work, "Revision of the Rophitine Genus Protodufourea" (1987). This data publication aims to serve as a reliable resource with definitive species identifications and new material reviewed by the original authors. The dataset seeks to address the challenges highlighted by Meier et al. (2004) for reliable datasets: (1) misidentification of unrevised museum specimens; (2) the broad range of private and public collections included in specimen lists from revisionary studies; and (3) the cost-effectiveness of obtaining specimen records from revisions.

Méthodes d'échantillonnage

Bee specimens, including all primary types were examined with Wild M5 dissection microscopes and ocular micrometers. Illustrations were drawn using representative specimens. Because of possible confusion in identities, floral associations are only given for specimens we have examined. The following abbreviations are used for specimen repositories, with individuals associated with those repositories following: University of California, Berkeley; H. Daly; University of California, Davis; R. Thorp; University of California, Riverside; S. Frommer; Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, Los Angeles; R. Snelling; California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco; W. Pulawski; University of Arizona, Tucson; G. Eickwort and C. Olson; University of Kansas, Lawrence; R. Brooks; Cornell University, Ithaca; G. Eickwort and W. Wcislo;

Etendue de l'étude This study utilized only museum specimens. All available specimens of Protodufourea borrowed from 8 museums plus all material in the US National Pollinating Insects Collection were identified to species by the authors.

Description des étapes de la méthode:

  1. Data From Loaned Specimens: Specimens that are not housed within our collection (the National Pollinating Insect Collection, historically referred to as the Bee Biology and Systematics Laboratory) will have their owner identified in the Darwin Core(DwC) term "OwnerInstitutionCode". For more information on this term, please visit: http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/ownerInstitutionCode Additionally, loaned specimens will typically have a catalog number prefix starting with "BBSLID......" in the Darwin Core field "CatalogNumber". http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/catalogNumber
  2. Specimens that are owned or have rights holders other than the USDA will be indicated in the Darwin Core(DwC) fields RightsHolder, InformationWithheld, and dataGeneralizations. Specific instructions for each specimen's full data retrieval will be included in the Darwin Core(DwC) RightsHolder and AccessRights Example for the field RightsHolder: 'National Park Service. Please contact Park Service through IRMA (https://irma.nps.gov/Portal/).' Specimens that were collected from listed or endangered plants will have information withheld. This status will be indicated in the Darwin Core(DwC) fieldinformationWithheld. Example: 'yes (TE Listed Plant)- georeferences given only to nearest degree; Elevation, Flora host, Month and Day information has been hidden'

Métadonnées additionnelles

These specimen-based bee species occurrence records represent baseline bee species occurrences. Absence of bee species from this dataset does not indicate absence of the species from the collecting location. Number of times a species is recorded in this dataset does not represent actual species abundance or common-ness but may offer an indication of fluctuations in population size.

Remerciements Foreword from the 1987 A Revision of the Dufoureine Genus Micralictoides Timberlake (Hymenoptera: Halictidae) by GEORGE E. BOHART AND TERRY L. GRISWOLD: "We consider it appropriate in this revision of a small genus of halictid bees to recognize the accomplishments of well-known halictid specialist, George Eickwort, whose untimely death cut short a lifetime devoted to a major and relatively little-known family of bees. An included new species, P. eickworti, is accordingly dedicated to his memory."
Introduction "The genus Protodufourea Timberlake (1955) was described in 1955 for two rare bee species from California, P. parca Timberlake and P. wasbaueri Timberlake. Protodufourea has been known from only a few scattered sites in cismontane central and southern California. New records and three new species expand its range to include cismontane Baja California and the deserts of California, Nevada, and Arizona. The genus is apparently restricted to Hydrophyllaceae. Known host plants are Phacelia and Emmenanthe."
Objet Provide specimen data on a genus of bees whose species appear to be pollen specialists including for three new species  described.
