Just before National Bee Day, researchers are closely monitoring stingless bees in Cantareira State Park, Guarulhos. Their work aims to protect species vital for ecosystem conservation. Brazil hosts about 300 stingless bee species. Conservation units managed by the Forest Foundation shelter 32 native species, representing 51% of those recorded in São Paulo state.
Stingless bees play a crucial role in pollination. A single bee can visit between 50 and 1,000 flowers daily. Pollinators significantly contribute to a large portion of global food production.
