Pemberton, Robert W.; Escalona, Eduardo
- Abstract
The current distribution of Euglossa dilemma in Florida and spread from Broward County in 2003 to 23 counties in south and central Florida by 2022, is mapped using 142 specimen collection and identification records from the Florida State Collection of Arthropods, and 514 iNaturalist observations. This nonnative tropical orchid bee now appears to be a breeding resident in central Florida despite periodic, annual nighttime freezes. La distribución actual de Euglossa dilemma en Florida, y su propagación desde el condado de Broward en 2003 a 23 condados en el sur y centro de Florida para 2022, se mapea usando 142 registros de recolección y identificación de especímenes de la Colección de Artrópodos del Estado de Florida, y 514 observaciones en iNaturalist. Esta abeja orquídea tropical no nativa es ahora un residente reproductor en el centro de Florida a pesar de las heladas nocturnas anuales periódicas.
