Comment lire ce graphe

Ce graphe représente les interactions écologiques documentées entre Bombus crotchii et d'autres espèces, à partir de la base GloBI (Global Biotic Interactions, agrégation mondiale de la littérature scientifique) — source principale, complétée par d'autres jeux de données d'interactions agrégés par Ontologia. Il faut le comprendre comme une carte du savoir documenté, pas une carte de la réalité écologique exhaustive.

Limites principales

  • Incomplet. La majorité des interactions écologiques en milieu naturel n'ont jamais été publiées. Une espèce sans liens visibles n'est pas isolée — elle est probablement mal étudiée.
  • Biais publication pharmaco-agronomique. La littérature des interactions est polarisée par les enjeux économiques et sanitaires : parasitism / pathogen sur-pondéré sur les mammifères (recherche zoonoses, vecteurs), herbivory sur-pondéré sur les insectes phytophages (entomologie agronomique). À l'inverse, mutualisms, commensalisms et interactions sol/microbiote sont sous-cités. Conseil de lecture : sur les hubs mammifères ou les insectes ravageurs de culture, lire les arêtes parasitism / herbivory dominantes relativement au contexte de littérature, pas comme une mesure d'intensité écologique brute. Détails §10.1.
  • Biaisé vers les espèces étudiées. Quelques espèces (oiseaux communs, abeille mellifère, espèces modèles) concentrent disproportionnellement plus d'interactions documentées. Notre score composite ajoute un malus aux hubs de littérature pour atténuer cette dominance visuelle.
  • Interactions documentées globalement. Toutes les espèces affichées sont observées en France métropolitaine (les observations sont filtrées sur le territoire métropolitain), mais les interactions entre elles proviennent de la littérature scientifique mondiale. Une interaction documentée à l'étranger peut ne pas se réaliser à l'identique sur votre territoire. Le filtre « restreindre à ma commune » tient compte de la co-occurrence spatiale locale mais ne garantit pas l'interaction effective.
  • Sans dimension temporelle. Les variations saisonnières (migration, floraison, cycle de vie) ne sont pas modélisées.
  • Force d'interaction approximative. L'épaisseur des liens reflète le nombre de fois où l'interaction a été rapportée dans la littérature, pas son importance écologique réelle.

Comment nous sélectionnons les espèces affichées

Le graphe affiche au plus 31 nœuds par fiche (1 centre + 15 bulles depth=1 + 15 partenaires depth=2). Le serveur sélectionne intelligemment :

  • Bulles famille créées si une cascade taxonomique existe ou si ≥3 espèces directement documentées partagent une même famille — les espèces sont absorbées dans la bulle (pas de doublon visuel)
  • Espèces individuelles uniquement quand <3 dans une famille (sans cascade) — relations directes documentées
  • Pas d'espèces inférées affichées en doublon — les cascades sont représentées via les bulles famille uniquement
  • Partenaires depth=2 sélectionnés via algo priorité : candidat partagé par ≥2 docs de la famille (food web central) → reliant entre bulles → top sum_obs en dernier recours
  • Sous-types GloBI traduits en français au survol de la flèche (chasse, parasite, parasitoïde, mycorhize…)

Le toggle Profondeur 1 ↔ 2 client-side cache ou affiche les partenaires depth=2 sans refetch. Filtres règne, type d'interaction, ordres/familles, patrimoniales et commune recalculent côté serveur (slow path live ~1-2 s).

Indicateurs avancés (mode expert) : Modularité Q (Newman 2006, PNAS), communautés (Louvain, Blondel et al. 2008, J. Stat. Mech.), nestedness NODF (Almeida-Neto et al. 2008, Oikos).

État de la populationExpert
We evaluated this species’ spatial distribution over time using a measure of change in the extent of occurrence (EOO; see Figure 2 in the Supplementary Material) and a measure of change in persistence (analytical methods described in Hatfield et al. 2014). We also assessed changes in the species’ relative abundance
(see Figure 1 in the Supplementary Material), which we consider to be an index of abundance relevant to the taxon, as specified by the IUCN Red List Categories and Criteria (IUCN 2012). For all three calculations we divided the database into historical (1805-2001, N=128,572) and current (2002-2012, N=74,682) records. This timeframe was chosen to meet the IUCN criteria stipulation that species decline must have been observed over the longer of three generations or 10 years. Average decline for this species was calculated by averaging the change in abundance, persistence and EOO. This analysis yielded the following results (see also the graph of relative abundance and map of change in EOO over time Supplementary Material): 
  • Current range size relative to historic range: 74.67%
  • Persistence in current range relative to historic occupancy: 20.48%
  • Current relative abundance relative to historic values: 2.32%
  • Average decline: 67.51%
This analysis suggests sharp declines in both relative abundance and persistence over the last ten years. This species was historically common in the Central Valley of California, but now appears to be absent from most of it, especially in the center of its historic range (Hatfield et al. 2014). 

Note that this analysis did not consider the Mexican distribution of this species, however, since this species is known from very few records in just one area of Mexico (Labougle 1990, R. Vandame pers. comm. 2014), the Mexican data would not have significantly impacted the above results. Remy Vandame (pers. comm. 2014) notes that the species is of high conservation concern in Mexico, although more sampling effort is needed to confirm its status in the region. There are very few historical records in Mexico (12 specimens from Baja California), and recent surveys in the region have not encountered this species (R. Vandame pers. comm. 2014).

Description complète des menacesExpert
Agricultural intensification in California's northern Central Valley and rapid urbanization in the southern Central Valley are threats that may have impacted B. crotchii, since this species was historically common in the Central Valley but now appears to be absent from much of its historic range, especially in the central part of its range (Hatfield et al. 2014, R. Thorp pers. comm. 2014). Note, however, that in the more northern parts of this species range, this species has been detected in agricultural landscapes in Yolo County and Contra Costa County in recent years (R. Thorp pers. comm. 2014). Climate change, specifically increasing aridity, is an additional threat; this species has a very narrow climatic specialization compared to most bumble bees (NatureServe 2014).  Bumble bees, as a whole, are threatened by a number of additional factors including pesticide use, pathogens from managed pollinators, and competition with non-native bees (reviewed in Goulson 2010, Williams et al. 2009, Williams and Osborne 2009, Cameron et al. 2011, Fürst et al. 2014, Hatfield et al. 2012). Reduced genetic diversity resulting from any of these threats can be particularly concerning for bumble bees, since their method of sex-determination can be disrupted by inbreeding, and since genetic diversity already tends to be low in this group due to the colonial life cycle (i.e., even large numbers of bumble bees may represent only one or a few queens) (Goulson 2010, Hatfield et al. 2012 but see Cameron et al. 2011, Lozier et al. 2011).

Mesures de conservation recommandéesExpert

Conservation needs: Specific conservation needs for this species have not been identified. Due to the inherent vulnerability of many bumble bee species and importance of supporting wild bee populations for pollination services, the following general conservation practices are recommended: 

  1. Restore, create and preserve natural high-quality habitats to include suitable forage, nesting and overwintering sites. 
  2. Restrict pesticide use on or near suitable habitat, particularly while treated plants are in flower.
  3. Promote farming practices that increase of nitrogen-fixing fallow (legumes) and other pollinator-friendly plants along field margins.  
  4. Minimize exposure of wild bees to diseases transferred from managed bees. 
  5. Avoid honey bee introduction to high-quality native bee habitat.

Research needs: Hatfield et al. (2014) suggest that recent collection effort has not been sufficient throughout this species' historic range. Thorp (pers. comm. 2014) notes concerns about how much collection effort has been conducted in the central area of the species range in recent years. The area has been under intense conversion to agriculture and there has been reduced collecting and monitoring in the area.

Research needs for North American bumble bees (as a whole) are summarized in Cameron et al. (2011), the final report for the 2010 North American Bumble Bee Species Conservation Planning Workshop.
