4种熊蜂蜂王初生重和三型蜂喙长的测定

试验测定和分析了Bombus pyrosoma、B.terrestris、B.patagiatus和B.lucorum 4种熊蜂蜂王初生重和三型蜂的喙长,结果表明:4种熊蜂的蜂王喙长与初生重均存在高度正相关性,各回归方程的相关系数均达极显著.同种熊蜂三型蜂间,蜂王喙长明显长于工蜂和雄蜂的喙长,除B.pyrosoma工蜂喙长明显长于雄蜂的喙长外,其他三个熊蜂种的工蜂与雄蜂喙长相等.同型蜂4种熊蜂间,B.pyrosoma和B.terrestris蜂王初生重和工蜂喙长分别相等,蜂王喙长和雄蜂喙长均不等,B.patagiatus和B.lucorum的蜂王初生重和三型蜂喙长分别相等,但前两者蜂王初生重明显重于后两者的,三型蜂喙长分别长于后两者的.

The measurement of queen original quality and proboscis length of three castes on four species bumblebee (Hymenoptera: Bombus)

The morphology of four species of bumblebee (queen original quality and proboscis length of three castes) were measured and analyzed in the experiment. The result show that the length of the queen's proboscis was correlated positively to the queen original quality, there is significant difference on the relationship. The proboscis length of the queen was significant longer than the worker and drone in four species. There was no difference on the proboscis length of worker and drone except the B.pryosoma. The queen original quality of the B.pyrosoma and B. terrestris were obvious heavier than the B.patagiatus and B.lucorum, and so did the proboscis length. There were no difference on the queen original quality and proboscis length between the B. pyrosom and B.terrestris, and so did the B.patagiatus and B.lucorum.
