Suction feeding in orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini) [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2004 Energy flux during nectar feeding is maximized at an intermediate sugar concentration, the value of which depends on the morphology of the feeding apparatus and the modality of fluid feeding. Biomechanical models predict that a shift from capillary-based lapping to suction feeding will lead to a decrease in this optimal sugar concentration.
