Ítem Distribution and impacts of Aethina tumida Murray (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae) in Latin America(Canadian Honey Counsil, 2019) Antúnez, Karina; Aldea Sánchez, Patricia; Calderón, Rafael A.; Correa, Adriana; Díaz Cetti, S.; Guido, Maria Carolina; Silva, Noirce Lopes da; Medina-Medina, Luis Abdelmir; Müller, Pablo Fernando; Palacio, María Alejandra; Pérez Castro, Eleazar Ezequiel; Nogueira Pereira, S.; Rodríguez, A.; Sattler, Aroni; Sordi Taveira, Renata; Weinstein Teixeira, Érica; Velarde, R.; Yadró García, C.A.; Bulacio Cagnolo, NataliaThe small hive beetle (SHB) Aethina tumida is a parasitic pest and scavenger of social bees, native to sub-Saharan Africa. Although in its native range it does not cause severe damage to strong colonies, it has invaded new areas, such as the USA and Australia, causing significant economic losses. Here, we present the current distribution of the SHB in Latin America, and discuss the strategies carried out in different countries to prevent its entrance or spread. The first report of its presence dates to 2007, in Coahuila, Mexico, a borderline state to the USA. Then it spread to other Mexican states and by 2012, it was detected in Yucatan and Quintana Roo, in the southern part of the country. Simultaneously it was also detected in Cuba, and continued spreading south, being found in El Salvador in 2013, Nicaragua in 2014 and Costa Rica in 2015. It was also detected in Sao Paulo (southeast of Brazil) in 2015, and in Río de Janeiro the following year; reaching by 2019 Mato Grosso do Sul (Midwest of Brazil). Although A. tumida does not significantly impact beekeeping in countries where Africanized bees are present, it negatively impacts the regulation of the hive products from these countries. On the other hand, in the Andean and southern portion of South America (Bolivia, Perú, Chile, Argentina and Uruguay), there are to date no reports of the beetle`s presence. A workshop held in 2016 in the framework of RedLAC (Network for the development of familiar agriculture in LatinAmerica and the Caribbean), brought researchers and technicians of different countries to discuss strategies for the prevention and control of the beetle. The documents produced at this meeting were an important input for the animal sanitary agencies. Since then, different strategies have been drawn for its early detection, including sampling in risk areas, installation of sentinel apiaries with traps, and/or extension activities for beekeepers, among others. Within RedLAC and SOLATINA (Latin American Society for Bee Research), we aim to work together to strengthen and improve these strategies, while understanding the potential impacts of this pest for the bees in the region.Ítem ¿Son los hoteles para abejas una estrategia para su conservación en Costa Rica?(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023) Herrera González, Eduardo; van Veen Marinissen, Johan; Ramírez Montero, Marianyela; Aguilar Monge, Ingrid; Gallardo Flores, MarioSe presenta una iniciativa de instalación de "Hoteles para abejas" en diferentes localidades de Costa Rica; para la conservación de este insecto al reconocer la importancia en la polinización. Se analiza hoteles para abejas instalados en diferentes localidades de Costa Rica, con el fin de validar si es una estrategia efectiva para la conservación de las poblaciones de abejas nativas.Ítem Articulando el XII Congreso Mesoamericano de abejas nativas: la experiencia desde la virtualidad(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023) Zepeda Ramírez, Beatriz; Van Veen, Johan Wilhelm; Hernández-Ching, PaolaSe elabora en el año 2019, la primera edición en modalidad virtual del XII Congreso Mesoamericano de Abejas Nativas a cargo del CINAT-UNA, del 01 al 07 de noviembre 2021; por motivo a la crisis mundial a causa del Covid-19. La I Feria Virtual tuvo 28 stands de meliponicultores, emprendedores y organizaciones vinculadas con abejas nativas. Este espacio recibió 627visitantes durante el congreso -con interacción expositores vía chat o video-llamada- y 635 en las semanas posteriores (total 1262 usuarios). La modalidad permitió identificar grandes bondades y potencialidades del desarrollo virtual del Congreso, en cuanto a la riqueza de datos obtenidos y métricas del perfil de participante, la amplitud y alcance de las interacciones y el material audiovisual.Ítem Sentinel apiaries – epidemiological surveillance – training programas as strategies for early detection of the SHB in AHB in Costa Rica(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023) Calderón, Rafael A. Fallas; Sánchez Chaves, LuisImplementing strategies for the early detection of the SHB as it spreads to new countries or areas requires As illustrated by the case of Costa Rica, is necessary: 1. Implementing sentinel apiaries 2. The development of epidemiological surveillance 3. The development of training activities for technicians and beekeepers to aid in SHB recognitionÍtem Tools for strengthening productive capacities in beekeepers from the Central Pacific Region of Costa Rica(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023) Hernández-Ching, Paola; Sánchez Chaves, LuisThe aim was to promote the empowerment and productive improvement of beekeepers operating in an area of high ecological degradation and marked poverty levels in the Central Pacific Region of Costa Rica, for whom beekeeping is their main source of income.Ítem Development of the educational App, Beesin My Garden, as an innovative tool forbees learning about bees(Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica, 2023) Hernández-Ching, Paola; Calderón Fallas, Rafael Rolando; Zepeda Ramírez, BeatrizThe Tropical Beekeeping Research Center (CINAT) of Universidad Nacional, Costa Ricareceives approximately 15 training requests on bees each year from mainly educationalcenters. Additionally, CINAT visits rural areas throughout the country where it is necessaryto raise awareness among children about the importance and preservation of bees.The Design Thinking (DT) methodology was used for thedevelopment of the application: empathize, define, ideate,prototype, and test.The thematic axes of the app were dividedinto: Bee Morphology, MainContributions of Bees, Bees FaceDangers: Let's Learn About the MainThreats, and Hive DerivativesÍtem Aprendizajes del proyecto Fortalecimiento de las capacidades productivas en personas apicultoras de la zona de la Cuenca de los ríos Jesús María y Barranca y la Cuenca media y baja del Grande de Tárcoles y los Corredores Biológicos Montes del Aguacate y Paso Las Lapas(Congreso Latinoamericano de Apicultura Cusco ( XV : 2022 noviembre 16 -19: Cusco, Perú), 2022-11-17) Hernández Ching, PaolaSe analiza aprendizajes del proyecto Fortalecimiento de las capacidades productivas en personas apicultoras de la zona de la Cuenca de los ríos Jesús María y Barranca y la Cuenca media y baja del Grande de Tárcoles y los Corredores Biológicos Montes del Aguacate y Paso Las Lapas. Define la matriz de trabajo del proyecto: diagnostico participativo, ejecución, análisis, planificación y se divide: sesiones de capacitación, sesiones de acompañamiento, sesiones de trabajo, sesiones de validación, se aplicaron instrumentos y se realizaron talleres.
