Resumo: The abusive use of pesticides has caused to the disappearance of bees in agricultural areas, being one of the causes of Colony Collapse Disorder and colony losses worldwide. To preserve the pollinators in agricultural areas, it is necessary to know about the impacts of pesticides on these agents. The aim of this study was to evaluate the toxicity of the insecticide Imidacloprid +  Beta-Cyfluthrin, at the minimum and maximum doses recommended by the manufacturer for pest control in melon crop, on adult workers of the honey bee Apis mellifera. The toxicity of Imidacloprid +  Beta-Cyfluthrin was evaluated by means of two different ways of exposure of the bees to the product: direct spraying and ingestion of contaminated diet. After exposure, the mortality and behavior of the bees were evaluated for a period of 72 hours. Regardless of the dose, the insecticide Imidacloprid +  Beta-Cyfluthrin was extremely toxic to A. mellifera via direct spray, causing 100% mortality and presenting a TL50 of 3.85 h. Orally, Imidacloprid +  Beta-Cyfluthrin was less toxic to A. mellifera, presenting a TL50 of 32.98 h. The results  reinforce the need for attention when applying insecticides to melon crops, especially during period the flowering and foraging of honey bees.

Para preservar polinizadores em áreas agrícolas é necessário conhecer sobre os impactos dos pesticidas sobre esses agentes. Objetivou-se com o trabalho avaliar a toxicidade do inseticida Imidacloprido + Beta Ciflutrina, nas doses mínima e máxima recomendada pelo fabricante para o controle de pragas em meloeiro, sobre operárias adultas da abelha Apis mellifera. A toxicidade de Imidacloprido + Beta Ciflutrina foi avaliada por meio de duas formas distintas de exposição das abelhas ao produto: pulverização direta e ingestão de dieta contaminada. Após a exposição, foram avaliadas a mortalidade e o comportamento das abelhas por um período de 72 horas. Independente da dose, o inseticida Imidacloprido + Beta-Ciflutrina foi extramamente tóxico sobre a A. mellifera via pulverização direta, ocasionando 100% de mortalidade e apresentando TL50 de 3,85 h. Já via oral, Imidacloprido + Beta-Ciflutrina foi menos tóxico para A. mellifera, apresentando TL50 de 32,98h. Os resultados obtidos reforçam a necessidade de atenção no momento de aplicação de inseticidas nas lavouras de meloeiro, especialmente durante o período de floração e forrageamento das abelhas melíferas.Editora UFGD2021-09-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojs.ufgd.edu.br/index.php/agrarian/article/view/1333010.30612/agrarian.v14i53.13330Agrarian; v. 14 n. 53 (2021); 323-332Agrarian Journal; Vol. 14 No. 53 (2021); 323-3321984-2538reponame:Agrarian (Dourados.
