1 Conservation and sustainable utilization of stingless bees for pollination o services in agricultural ecosystems in Malaysia Mohd Norowi, H., Sajap, A.S., Rosliza, J., Mohd Fahimie, J. and Suri, R
2 Outlines 1. Pollination and pollinators 2. Roles of pollinator 3. Pollination services 4. Decline in bees 5. Diversity and potential of stingless bees 6. Malaysia initiatives 7. Summary
3 Pollinators Pollination is essential ecosystem service About 80% flower plant depend on animal Mammals Bats 40 plant families Open at night Durian, Guava, Banana Birds 65 plant families
4 Insects Pollinators Beetles (Coleoptera) 34 plant families Weevil Elaeidobius kamerunicus Flies (Diptera) 60+ plant families Cacao tropical midges Butterflies and moths (Lepidoptera) 70+ plant families (moths often overlooked) Sunflower Sunflower Thrips 9 plant families Cacao
5 Pollinators Ants Wasps Bees Pollinate 90% of 254,000 angiosperm species 17,000 described bee species (est. 25,000) Bee provide the essential ecosystem service of POLLINATION

7 Pollinator stingless bees Closed to honey bees Worldwide species Trigona and Melipona are the most important Trigona is the most widely distributed Important pollinators of many crops in tropical and subtropical (Heard, 1999)
8 Pollinator - Roles In natural ecosystem pollinators conserve biodiversity 95% insect responsible for canopy trees 50% understory yplants Tropical forest ecosystem is more susceptible to pollinator loss Plant reduce reproduction success in diverse ecosystem
9 Pollinator - Roles In Agroecosystem - food security 30% of human food rely on bee-pollinated crops Global value USD 217 billion Bees are rented/sold to supplement wild pollinator populations p
10 Pollination and ecosystem service conserve biodiversity Maintenance of genetic resources Purification of air and water Stabilization and moderation of the Earth's climate Pollination of plants, including many crops Control of pests and diseases Cultural and aesthetic benefits Ability to adapt to change

15 Decline in bees Significant decline in pollinator diversity in UK and Netherlands since 1980s. Bee diversity declined 56% and 67% in UK and Netherlands, respectively In UK 75% of bee pollinated wild plants declined in distribution
16 Decline in bees Colony Collapse Disorder
17 Decline in bees Could seriously threaten food security and biodiversity (FA0, 2007)! CBD IPI (2000) - to promote sustainable use of pollinator diversity in agriculture and related ecosystems Diversification of crop pollinator help to maintain pollination service Looking for efficient pollinators
18 Stingless bees diversity Malaysia hosts wide variety stingless bees (Trigona) 32 species reported 29 species kept in MARDI insect Museum 20 colonies of 11 species in pollinator garden
