Revision of the Aechmea multiflora complex (Bromeliaceae) [PDF]
A taxonomic revision of the Aechmea multiflora complex (Bromeliaceae) is presented. The complex currently com- prises four species belonging to the subgenus Chevaliera. In this study, we document morphological variation in her- barium and living plants in order to improve the delimitation of species in the genus Aechmea.

Drought stress leads to reduced nectar secretion and alters nectar composition of day‐ and night‐flowering Nicotiana species, which may impair plant–pollinator interactions. Abstract The frequencies of droughts worldwide will increase in the future due to climate changes. Nectar composition of plant species varies in relation to pollinator and can also
