Floral visitors of Vaccinium species in the High Ardennes, Belgium

Flora, 1993
Pollination ecology of three Vaccinium species considered primarily adapted to bumblebees (Bombus LATR. spp.) was studied in the High Ardennes, Belgium. Observations and insect collections were conducted in a peaty heath during the period 1988-1990, in the bilberry (V. myrtillus), the cowberry (V. vitis-idaea) and the bog whortleberry (V.

Spring ephemeral Erythronium umbilicatum may not be vulnerable to phenological mismatch with overstory trees

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The defining life history strategy of spring ephemeral wildflowers is their avoidance of shading by trees during the brief, high‐light period before canopy leaf out. Studies suggest that spring ephemerals will experience increased light competition because canopy leaf out is more sensitive to warming than is the phenology of spring ...

The light intensity mediates the pollination efficacy of a Caatinga morning glory Ipomoea bahiensis (Convolvulaceae)

Sociobiology, 2021
Pollination is an ecological process that relies on the matching traits of flower visitors and flowers. Morphology, behavior, and temporal patterns play essential roles in mediating the interactions between plants and floral visitors. This study analyzed

Under the Shade of a Coolabah Tree: A Second Cache of Tulas From the Boulia District, Western Queensland

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.

By the Way, Does the Presence of Ants in Flowers Interfere with Floral Visitation, or Not? A community Ecology Study

Sociobiology
Several mutualistic interactions occur in natural communities that, in some cases, present antagonistic functions happening simultaneously and even within the same interaction, so both mutualistic and antagonistic partners present direct and indirect ...

Zooarchaeological Analysis of an Atoll Assemblage From Central Micronesia

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.

Floral biology of candeia (Eremanthus erythropappus, Asteraceae)

Biologia floral da candeia (Eremanthus erythropappus, Asteraceae) [PDF]

Pesquisa Florestal Brasileira, 2012
Floral biology and pollinators of candeia (Eremanthus erythropappus) were analyzed in a natural population. We studied anthesis, flower morphology, stigmatic receptivity, pollen viability and floral visitors.

Body donor programs in Australia and New Zealand: Current status and future opportunities

Anatomical Sciences Education, Volume 18, Issue 3, Page 301-328, March 2025.
Abstract Body donation is critical to anatomy study in Australia and New Zealand. Annually, more than 10,000 students, anatomists, researchers, and clinicians access tissue donated by local consented donors through university‐based body donation programs. However, little research has been published about their operations.

Crab spiders (Araneae: Thomisidae) in flowering plants in a Brazilian "Cerrado" ecosystem

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Although crab spiders are common in flowering plants, their relations with plant species and its floral traits have been poorly known in the Neotropics. Observations regarding plant habits, floral visitors and also floral characteristics such as anthesis,
