Núcleo de Ecologia e Manejo de Insetos – NEMI

Between october 8 and 12 the NEMI students Valdeir Pereira Lima and Jullia Jacques presented their work in the XIII Congresso Brasileiro de Ecologia e III Simpósio Internacional de Ecologia e Evolução. The studies entitled “Niche analysis and distribution patterns of Melipona scutellaris Latrille, 1981 using ecological niche modelling”, “Predicting the impacts of climate change on Melipona subnitida Ducke, 1910” and “Estimating the development rate of Mythimna sequax (Franclemont) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) using non-linear models” can be obtained in the section publications. The works presented in the event resulted from studies carried out by NEMI involving the development of phenological models for insect pests and the effects of climate change on the distribution of stingless bees native from Brazil.

Congratulations to the NEMI students for their excellent work!
