This research investigates the evolution of social behavior in small carpenter bees by analyzing their genetic relationships and social structures. It aims to construct a detailed phylogeny and explore how different reproductive strategies influence sociality and parental care.
The origin of cooperation between individuals remains one of the main puzzles of evolutionary biology.
Eusocial insects are one of most striking examples of extensive cooperation in which some individuals forego reproduction to help others.
Yet research on eusocial insects concentrates mainly on species with large societies whereas species which exhibit facultative eusociality (some individuals live socially, other solitarily) are well suited for studying the origin of eusociality. I plan to stu…
