Professor Jeff Ollerton visited the Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences on Monday this week. He gave a brilliant talk on wild pollinator bee diversity and ecosystem services. His talk includes several parts impressed the audience. He did great job to associate the significant diversity dynamics with the 4 major events including World War II and agriculture policy changes. Besides, he brought a fine art book, British field guid to wild bees. The book includes 270 species and many colorful pictures taken in the field. We expect we can compile another one in China to be helpful for other researchers.
Jeff Ollerton教授周一到访动物研究所,就野生蜜蜂多样性和生态功能做了一场精彩的学术报告。他的报告令我印象最深的是对英国中部野生蜜蜂20年来物种多样性变化和近代历史上4次重大事件或农业政策变化之间关联性的研究。另外,Jeff给我带了一件精美的礼物:英国野生蜜蜂野外手册。该手册涉及英国270种物种,并配以彩色生态照片。期待不远的将来,我们也能够编撰这样一部志书,方便各个学科的学者使用。
