Rozen, Jerome G., Jr. (Jerome George), 1928-2005-10-062005-10-062001http://hdl.handle.net/2246/292627 p. : ill. ; 26 cm.Includes bibliographical references (p. 24-26) and index.A taxonomic key is presented for the identification of mature larvae of cleptoparasitic bees to family, subfamily, tribe, and genus/subgenus. A total of 39 genera/subgenera are treated. All taxonomically important characters are illustrated. A table cites references to mature larvae described since the appearance of 'A catalog and review of immature Apoidea (Hymenoptera)' (R.J. McGinley, 1989, Smithson. Contrib. Zool. 494: 24 pp.). Other tables list the known or strongly suspected cleptoparasite/host associations at the tribal, subfamilial, and familial levels. A final table lists the genera/subgenera of cleptoparasitic bees whose mature larvae have yet to be found and studied.484021 bytesapplication/pdfen-USQL1 .A436 no.3309, 2001Bees -- LarvaeBees -- LarvaeParasitic insects -- LarvaeParasitic insects -- LarvaeHost-parasite relationships.BeesParasitic insectsA taxonomic key to mature larvae of cleptoparasitic bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea).
