Parasitismo floral por abejas sociales (Meliponinae; Apidae) en el árbol quiropterófilo Crescentia alata (Bignoniaceae)

Abstract

Las flores de Crescentia alata son probablemente polinizadas por murciélagos (Glossophaga soricina) y son parasitadas por dos especies de abejas sociales: Partamona bilineata y Trigona fulviventris. Mientras que P. bilineata colecta néctar y polen, T. fulviventris colecta solamente polen. En cuatro árboles en los que se midió el robo de polen se encontró que la intensidad de éste era mayor en el árbol en el que la dehiscencia de las anteras ocurría más temprano que en aquéllos en los que ocurría más tarde. Las abejas remueven aproximadamente 40% de la producción total de néctar antes de la llegada de los murciélagos. Las abejas actúan como parásitos de las plantas y mantienen una relación amensalista con los murciélagos. Sugerimos que las plantas polinizadas por murciélagos son especialmente susceptibles al robo de polen debido a que tienen flores en las que el polen está expuesto. Además, este polen parece ser especialmente atractivo para las abejas. Las características de las plantas polinizadas por murciélagos son probablemente el resultado de la interacción no solamente con polinizadores sino que también con las abejas que parasitan el polen y néctar.
