Optimal foraging: movement patterns of bumblebees between inflorescences
Abstract
Nectar-collecting bumblebees are hypothesized to employ rules of movement which result in the maximum net rate of energy gain (i.e., are optimal), and predicted patterns of movement are compared with field observations to support the hypothesis.
