Descrição
The dataset provides information about wild bees (Anthophila) collected in southern Türkiye, during a field expedition carried out from the 2025-04-23 to 2025-05-02. It contains 2070 specimens, of which 89% are confidently identified to the species level, which represents 246 species.
This dataset is associated with an article submitted to Biodiversity Data Journal: Santerre et al. (submitted) New records of wild bees from a spring expedition in Southern Türkiye, with six new species for the country (Hymenoptera: Apoidea: Anthophila).
Registros de Dados
Os dados deste recurso de ocorrência foram publicados como um Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), que é o formato padronizado para compartilhamento de dados de biodiversidade como um conjunto de uma ou mais tabelas de dados. A tabela de dados do núcleo contém 2.070 registros.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Métodos de Amostragem
Wild bees were collected using hand nets, trying to prioritize the species diversity by sampling on a maximum diversity of flowering plants (no standardized sampling protocol). Samplings were generally carried on from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Specimens were killed with cyanid or ethyl acetate, and pinned in collection the same day. Each specimen was labeled with the main collection information (i.e., Locality, altitude, GPS coordinates, Date, Collector), and with a unique identification code added to the same label.
| Área de Estudo | The sampling was carried in 42 sites distributed across southern Türkiye. Each site was sampled a single time, between 2025-04-23 and 2025-05-02. |

Descrição dos passos do método:
- Species-level identification was performed in the lab by Thomas Brau (Halictus, Seladonia, Thrincohalictus), Frédéric Carion (Nomada), Achik Dorchin (Eucera), Simone Flaminio (Ceylalictus, Lasioglossum, Rophites), Guillaume Ghisbain (Bombus, Dasypoda), Sebastian Hopfenmüller (Panurginus), Michael Kuhlmann (Colletes), Romain Le Divelec (Hylaeus, Sphecodes), Anatole Maugendre (Coelioxys), Denis Michez (Dasypoda), Andreas Müller (Chelostoma, Hoplitis, Osmia), Pierre Rasmont (Amegilla, Anthophora, Eupavlovskia, Habropoda), Blandine Rigaut (Dufourea), Rémi Santerre (Ammobatoides, Anthophora, Ceratina, Melitturga, Nomiapis), Jakub Straka (Nomada, Sphecodes), Michaël Terzo (Ceratina, Xylocopa), Clément Tourbez (Anthidiellum, Anthidium, Chelostoma, Heriades, Hoplitis, Megachile, Osmia, Protosmia, Pseudoanthidium, Rhodanthidium, Stelis, Stenoheriades) and Thomas J. Wood (Andrena, Camptopoeum, Panurgus).
- The geographical consistency of the identifications was first verified for each species using centralised resources (e.g. Rasmont 2014, Ascher and Pickering 2025, Müller 2025), then additional targeted documentation was sought and a double-check of the identifications was carried out by Rémi Santerre to confirm the validity of the outliers.
- The species of particular interest that are highlighted below were illustrated through photographies taken with Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II equipped with a M.Zuiko Digital ED 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens, and stacked with Helicon Focus 8.2 (Helicon Soft Ltd, Kharkiv, Ukraine) (pictures with grey background). Additional close-up images (with white background) were captured through automatic stacking with Keyence VHX-970F digital microscope equipped with a VHX-7020 camera and a VH-Z20R/Z20T zoom lens.
