David Roubik, Ph.D., an entomologist at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute, was the first scientist to document a bee exhibiting obligate necrophagy—feeding only on carrion, i.e., dead animals—which was found in the tropical rainforest in Panama, a species called Trigona hypogea.

Thanks very much. The name got changed in 1991 to Trigona necrophaga, Camargo and Roubik. Time and studies do things, no?
