Diversity of melliferous flora in the State of Tamaulipas, Mexico
Apiculture continues to grow steadily in Mexico as does interest in potential nectariferous and polliniferous flora in different states. An inventory was made of melliferous plant species in the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico, visited by Apis mellifera L. in different annual seasons. Field work was done between 2012 and 2015. Plant species whose flowers were visited by A. mellifera were documented, including data on life form, growth form, origin, resource production, vegetation type and flowering time. A total of 215 species were recorded belonging to 173 genera and 60 families of phanerogamic plants. Most are native species (87.91 %) and herbaceous (42.32 %). Fabaceae and Asteraceae are the most common families. The highest proportion of plants are nectariferous (45.12 %), followed by nectariferous-polliniferous (40 %) and polliniferous (14.88 %). Secondary vegetation and dry tropical forest contain the largest number of these species, and provide the greatest floral resources during the summer season.

El desarrollo de la apicultura en México ha incrementado el interés por conocer el potencial de la flora nectarífera y polinífera en diferentes estados. El objetivo del estudio fue ampliar el conocimiento sobre la flora de importancia apícola en Tamaulipas en las diferentes estaciones del año. Con base en trabajo de campo realizado entre 2012 y 2015, se obtuvo un inventario de las especies de plantas cuyas flores son pecoreadas por Apis mellifera L. Se registraron un total de 215 especies, pertenecientes a 173 géneros y 60 familias de plantas fanerógamas, siendo la mayoría nativas (87.91 %) y herbáceas (42.32 %). Las familias mejor representadas fueron Fabaceae y Asteraceae. La mayor proporción de plantas son las productoras de néctar (45.12 %), seguidas por nectaro-poliníferas (40 %) y por último las productoras de polen fueron (14.88 %). La vegetación secundaria y la selva baja caducifolia son las comunidades vegetales más importantes por el número de especies identificadas que producen néctar y polen durante la época de verano.
