Beetles as floral visitors in the Magnoliaceae: an evolutionary perspective

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2021
Due to its ancient origin in the Permian and the high proportion of beetle-pollinated taxa within ancestral magnoliid lineages, it has been hypothesized that beetles were among the first floral visitors of the proto-angiosperms on Earth. Thus, beetle-pollinated flowers have become important model systems essential for the study of the origin and ...

Relative pollination effectiveness of floral visitors of Pitcairnia angustifolia (Bromeliaceae)

American Journal of Botany, 2007
The effectiveness of flower visitors as pollinators will determine their potential role as selective agents on flower traits. Pitcairnia angustifolia has floral characters that would fit pollination by long‐billed hummingbirds, and they should be the most effective pollinators for this plant.

Identification of Floral Visitors ofIris nelsonii

Southeastern Naturalist, 2012
Abstract Floral visitors of the homoploid hybrid species, Iris nelsonii (Abbeville Red Iris), were observed and identified in order to determine whether Abbeville Red Iris flowers are visited by similar floral visitors as its progenitor Iris species. The most common floral visitors to Abbeville Red Iris flowers were Archilochus colubris (Ruby-throated ...

Floral biology and flower visitors on subantarctic Campbell Island

New Zealand Journal of Botany, 2013
Abstract Island plants often show reduced floral pigmentation and display size compared with mainland relatives, which is commonly thought to relate to a lack of specialized pollinators. Some species on New Zealand's subantarctic islands have spectacular, highly pigmented inflorescences, yet the depauperate insect fauna provides little apparent ...

Plant–floral visitor network structure in a smallholder Cucurbitaceae agricultural system in the tropics: implications for the extinction of main floral visitors

Arthropod-Plant Interactions, 2017
Animal pollination is responsible for the majority of the human food supply. Understanding pollination dynamics in agricultural systems is thus essential to help maintain this ecosystem service in the face of human disturbances. Surprisingly, our understanding of plant–pollinator interactions in widely distributed smallholder agricultural systems is ...

The relative strength of different floral visitors driving floral evolution within a Primula secundiflora population

Evolutionary Ecology, 2018
Floral visitor assemblages within plant populations are usually composed of different visitors, and the relative abundance of these visitors also varies. Therefore, identifying the relative strength of these floral visitors driving floral evolution within the population is an important step in predicting the evolutionary trajectory of floral traits ...
