Acknowledgments 
We wish to thank C. D. Michener and J. G. Rozen, Jr., for 
making helpful suggestions on the manuscript and R. W. Brooks for 
the loan of Craxvfordapis larvae from Panama. The Tropical 
Science Center, San Jose, Costa Rica provided permission to study 
Craxvfordapis within the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve. The 
Organization for Tropical Studies provided logistical support for a 
portion of the field work. Thanks are due also to the community of 
Monteverde for its friendly support of biologists and appreciation 
of their work.
