Lowland rivers in South America have

ABSTRACT Flies (Diptera) are important pollinators in global agriculture, yet little is known about how intraspecific trait variation influences their pollination performance. We compared morphological traits, foraging behaviour and pollination‐related performance metrics between laboratory‐reared (hereafter lab‐reared) and wild populations of ...
