Mutualism and Antagonism in a Post‐Extinction Hawaiian Bird–Lobelioid Pollination System
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Species loss can restructure plant–pollinator interactions, but the functional consequences of altered interactions remain unclear. Using camera observations and experimental manipulations in Hawaiian lobelioids, we show that nectarivorous birds differ in whether visits result in pollen contact or nectar robbing, with robbing altering nectar dynamics ...
