306 - SloBees (Bumble Bee Surveys in Slovenia with Dr. Danilo Bevk) | PolliNation
Slovenia — a country the size of New Jersey — is home to 575 bee species, more than a quarter of all species known in Europe. It's the birthplace of the Carniolan honeybee, but it's also a hotspot for wild and solitary bees. This week, we sit down with Dr. Danilo Bevk, a researcher at the National Institute of Biology in Ljubljana and founder of the SloBees Society (Čmrljica), to talk about Slovenia's remarkable pollinator diversity, a citizen science project tracking bumblebee queens across the country, and a new Europe-wide monitoring scheme about to transform how we track these crucial insects. <span data-descript-pasteboard= "eyJ2ZXJzaW9uIjoxLCJkYXRhIjpbeyJzb3VyY2VUcmFjayI6eyJpZCI6ImFiMDZjZWM4LTM4YzMtNGZhOC1hZTljLWZjYzJlMWRhZTNlNCIsInR5cGUiOiJjb21wb3NpdGlvbiJ9LCJzb3VyY2VUcmFja0F1ZGlvUHJvcGVydGllcyI6eyJnYWluIjoxLCJwYW4
