Studying bee communities is critical to assessing their role in ecosystems and agricultural systems. A new meta-analysis of 72 bee-sampling studies reveals best practices—and the surprising breadth and scope necessary—for thoroughly documenting a local bee community. Shown here is a honey bee (Apis mellifera). (Photo by Hannah Levenson, Ph.D.)
