Despite the availability of data on plants and their pollinators from the Indian sub‐continent, detailed investigations that explain the intricacy of the mutualistic interaction at both population and community levels have largely been limited. This review explores the current status of pollination ecology research in India and suggests future ...

Reproductive biology of Stomatium bolusiae (Aizoaceae: Ruschioideae)
Flowers of Stomatium bolusiae are self-incompatible. The species exhibits crepuscular and nocturnal anthesis, exploiting two different pollination mechanisms. The structure of the hermaphroditic flower appears not to favour cross-pollination.

Bird‐flower colour on islands supports the bee‐avoidance hypothesis
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Many insular plant species inhabiting different archipelagos worldwide present typical ornithophilous floral traits (e.g. copious nectar, red‐orange colours), but most of them are visited by insectivorous/granivorous birds and lizards, which act as generalist ...

MELITTOPHILY IN THE SANTOS ZOOBOTANICAL PARK, BRAZIL
The reproduction of angiosperms strongly depends on bee pollination, which sustains trophic chains. In Brazil, stingless bees stand out, though they are threatened by competition with Africanized bees and urban expansion. We cataloged bee species visiting angiosperms in the Zoobotanical Park of Santos (São Paulo State, Brazil), where stingless bees are
