2 Aims The general objective of this study is to develop methods and tools for the use of honeybees as bioindicators of the environment to monitor plant diversity and environmental pollution for three sites : urban, semi-natural and agricultural in the region of Ile-de-France. Environmental pollution is monitored through honeybees foraging activity. Plant diversity is determined with the types of pollen brought back to the colony by foragers Here, we present only the results concerning the melliferous and polliniferous resources brought back by bee colonies in an urban area, close to Paris.
3 Methods Experimental sites Three sites with distinct environments (urban, semi-natural and agricultural) were selected in the region Ile-de-France. St Denis Rambouillet St Cyr-sur-Dourdan
4 The site of St-Denis, where the data presented here come from
5 Materials At each site, a total of five colonies were installed, two colonies with pollen traps and three colonies with electronic scales (BeeWise, from Api-Velay, France), bee counters (BeeSCAN, from Lowland Electronics, Belgium). Data are sent daily by SMS to the laboratory. Pollen traps Bee counters Electronic scales
6 METHOD POLLEN Weekly pollen sampling were conducted at the two hives. Two samples were weighted separately and 10g of each were dried out at C for 48 hours. One g out of these 10g from each colony were mixed together for pollen treatment (acetolysis) HONEY For the analysis of pollen contained in honey two samples of extracted honey sampled in the five colonies and weighting 250g each underwent melissopalynology, physicalchemical and sensory analyses POLLEN COUNTING Determination of diet resources For each slide we counted 2000 to 8000 grains to determine the BOTANICAL ORIGIN Floral abundance The total surface of slides (19-21 lines) was scanned to determine the TAXA DIVERSITY
