title: "Xylocopa micans" content: for pollination, since they are capable of buzz pollination, a technique that allows the bees to dislodge tightly held pollen using resonant vibration. This ability expands the types of plants that "X. micans" is capable of foraging on. "X. micans" is a member of the subgenus "Schoenherria", which is largely neotropical"." "X. micans" likely became separated from a South American ancestor species during Pleistocene glacial maxima in Florida. In the current period between ice ages, it has moved back southwest toward Guatemala. "X. micans" serves as a key example for step-wise evolution in the "Xylocopa" genus. Many "Xylocopa" bees demonstrate


title: "Xylocopa micans" content: resource defense polygyny, and many demonstrate lek polygyny. "X. micans" serves as a bridge between the two, exhibiting both states. It serves as an intermediate in terms of mesosomal gland size between those species requiring resource defense polygyny and those species requiring lek polygyny (which need to release pheromones to attract females). "X. micans" also demonstrates that evolution of sexual dimorphism followed evolution of non-resource defense mating strategies in "Xylocopa". Monomorphism is the ancestral state, and "X. micans", which shows both mating strategies, have males partially covered in light hairs, showing the beginnings of sexual dimorphism that grows more prominent


title: "Xylocopa micans" content: in species that require lek polygyny. As a general pollinator, "X. micans" is key to the reproduction of many plants within its habitat. In the nesting sites of many "Xylocopa" bee populations, destruction and removal of woody plants has caused the loss and extinction of those populations. Land clearing can lead to the loss of natural nesting sites, which can cause either the loss or the migration of certain species. "X. micans" may face a similar loss of location if land management practices reducing available dead wood removes potential nesting sites for the bee. The effect of dead wood management

Xylocopa micans Xylocopa micans, also known as the southern carpenter bee, is a species of bee within "Xylocopa", the genus of carpenter bees. The southern carpenter bee can be found mainly in the coastal and gulf regions of the southeastern United States, as well as Mexico and Guatemala. Like all "Xylocopa" bees, "X. micans" bees excavate nests in woody plant material. However, unlike its sympatric species "Xylocopa virginica", "X. micans" has not been found to construct nest galleries in structural timbers of building,

title: "Allegorical interpretations of Plato" content: a decadent and 'oriental' distortion of Platonism. In a famous 1929 essay, E. R. Dodds showed that key conceptions of Neo-Platonism could be traced from their origin in Plato's dialogues, through his immediate followers (e.g., Speusippus) and the Neo-Pythagoreans, to Plotinus and the Neo-Platonists. Thus Plotinus' philosophy was 'not the starting-point of Neo-Platonism but its intellectual culmination.' Further research reinforced this view and by 1954 Merlan could say 'The present tendency is toward bridging rather than widening the gap separating Platonism from Neo-Platonism.' E. N.
