摘要

Ecology of bees (Hymenoptera, Apiformes) is entirely constrained by the centralized exchange between the nest and its environment. Herein, we investigate the ecological meaning of the flight activity of honeybees {Apis mellifera L.) at the entrance of the nest, and assessed whether this simple metric can be used as a proxy to infer on the colony state (population size and foraging activity). Theory predicts that flight activity of a colony should increase (1) with population size (density-dependence hypothesis), (2) with floral resource availability (optimal foraging hypothesis), and (3) with the flight activity during previous hours or days, due to a temporal autocorrelation (behavioural inertia hypothesis). We built and compared series of explanatory models for the flight activity measured at the entrance of hives, and its two visible components, namely bees with and without pollen loads. Data were collected on 26 honeybee colonies, both before and after a translocation into a new environment with controlled floral resource availability in order to distinguish among the respective contributions of explanatory factors. Current flight activity was consistently and positively influenced by previous flight activity as well as by the current resource availability. To our knowledge, this represents the first characterization of behavioural inertia in the context of a collective behaviour. Population size only influenced flight activity of bees without pollen loads. We discuss the limits of using simple counts of flying bees at the hive entrance to infer the colony state.
