En un cementerio de Ithaca, Nueva York, una investigadora de Cornell descubrió sin buscarlo una de las mayores colonias de abejas terrestres jamás documentadas: 5,5 millones de individuos de la especie solitaria Andrena regularis conviviendo en apenas 1,5 acres de suelo sagrado. El hallazgo nos recuerda que la naturaleza encuentra refugio donde el ser humano se detiene, y que los espacios dedicados a la memoria de los muertos pueden ser, al mismo tiempo, cunas de vida invisible. Más allá del asombro numérico, la ciencia ve en este descubrimiento una advertencia y una oportunidad: proteger esto

Land management
Potential long-term benefits through improved pollination of crops (especially apples and other fruits), potentially stabilizing or reducing food prices and improving food security. Consumers may benefit from more reliable agricultural yields.
Governments may need to revise land-use policies to protect cemetery and similar habitats as biodiversity refuges. Agricultural policies could shift toward preserving solitary bee populations as natural pollination services, reducing dependency on commercial honeybee operations and pesticides. Environmental protection regulations may expand to include ground-nesting bee habitat preservation.
