flag Citizen science urged to monitor Ireland's endangered honeybee colonies for conservation, backed by Galway University research.

flag Researchers at Galway University call for citizen science involvement in monitoring Ireland's endangered wild native honeybee colonies to improve conservation strategies. flag The project, funded by Science Foundation Ireland, compares samples from wild colonies with managed and historical ones, and studies the ecology of colonies. flag This data will be submitted to the National Biodiversity Data Centre to enhance understanding of the bees previously thought to be extinct due to the parasite Varroa destructor.
