Farming and management of Xylocopa bees using trap-nests is a promising and sustainable activity. Besides economically important, for generating income and increasing pollination in several crops, the use of trap-nests has also been used to maintain bee populations in natural environments; such practice has favored pollination of native plant species. In this study, the main objectives were: i) to determine the plant species used by Xylocopa bees in the construction of nests; ii) to evaluate the occupancy rate of trap-nests by Xylocopa species in an experimental Xylocopário; iii) to introduce nests of Xylocopa bees in passion fruit crops and; iv) to assess the trophic niche breadth and overlap of Xylocopa frontalis and Xylocopa cearensis in...
