In contrast with results from experiments 1 and 2, bees remained consistent and used the same trapline in both phase 1 and 2 (in 43 ± 8·89% of foraging bouts, n=5), thus optimizing overall travel distances rather than initial rate of reward intake (Fig. 5).

During the last 20 bouts, all bees used one of the shortest possible routes as a trapline (the route they used most often: 25·19 ± 4·19% of the foraging bouts, n=15), by moving either clockwise (four bees) or anticlockwise (11 bees) between flowers.

Conversely, the observed optimization pattern (despite being imperfect) constitutes a more parsimonious solution, as it implies a minimal disruption to the pre-existing trapline.

- More recently, laboratory studies on bees have begun to investigate the behavioral mechanisms underpinning trapline foraging by recording the movements of individually marked foragers exploiting remote controlled artificial flowers, fitted with automated tracking systems, in indoor flight cages.
