Currently honeybees are the sole model insect pollinator for regulatory
pesticide risk assessments globally. Here we question whether this
surrogacy approach provides adequate protection against potential
non-target impacts of pesticide exposure for the wide diversity of insect
pollinators on which agricultural production and wild plant ecosystems
depend.
