Hello all,
I am mainly interested in MEGACHILIDAE and have a question regarding Osmia. I am currently attempting to write up a little write-up regarding the cleaning of the coccoons to rid them of the mites (Chaetodactylus spp.)associated with them. I have exhausted my literature review and search regarding this subject and have come up with no references. Sure, there's some mention of it on the internet and a few books, but I am looking for scientific sources only.
Can anyone direct me to some sources.
You may contact me off-list if appropriate.
Cheers,
Gord Hutchings
Victoria, B.C.
