I am interested in understanding how projected climate change might influence plant-pollinator interactions. As a first step in this investigation, I propose to sample the population of solitary mason bees (Megachilidae, Osmia spp) at Sagehen in order to determine which species they are pollinating, and determine what cues they use for spring emergence. These bees are commonly among the first vernal pollinators to emerge in the spring, and overwinter as adults; these characteristics suggest that they may have very specific emergence cues. I propose to use genetic analysis of provisioned pollen to determine which species are visited, and examine the germination and flowering cues used by these plant species.
