organism: Ceratina calcarata
description: Sample of six adult female Ceratina calcarata brains collected from six different nests found in sumac stems on June 28, 2022 in Toronto, Canada. Each nest was opened on the same day to dissect out brains of the adult mother (H076-1, H077-1, H079-1, H080-1, H081-1, H082-1). Each nest contained one reproductive mother that was caring for 3-10 larvae. These mothers also demonstrated a history of foraging with their wing wear (median: 1). In five of these nests, 1-4 eggs were also present.
