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 ...

Female simuliid species traits of voltinism and feeding produce 5 two‐trait states: non‐feeding/univoltine, ornithophilic/univoltine, mammalophilic/univoltine, ornithophilic/multivoltine, mammalophilic/multivoltine. We examined latitudinal variation in each two‐trait state using three large databases.

Ornithophily in the genus Salvia L. (Lamiaceae)
This dissertation presents for the first time a survey of bird pollinated (ornithophilous) Salvia species. Within the approximately 1000 species of the worldwide distributed genus roughly 20% (186 spp.) are bird pollinated. Excepting four species in the Old World (South Africa and Madagascar), ornithophilous species are restricted to the New World ...

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 ...

Sunbird‐plant interactions on MountCameroon are driven by both neutral and niche‐based processes. The importance of niche‐based processes increases during the rainy season, due to the phenology of specialized of ornithophilous flowers. Moreover, we can confirm the importance of the correlation between tube and bill length.

Preliminary study of the pollination syndromes in a fragment of the Caatinga, in PE, Brazil
The aim of this study was to preliminarily identify the pollination syndromes of plant species in a fragment of the Caatinga, in the municipality of Serrita, Pernambuco, Brazil. A floristic survey was conducted during March 2014 in a 900 m² area.

Interacción planta-colibrí en Amacayacu (Amazonas, Colombia): una perspectiva palinológica
Se cuantificaron 232 cargas de polen tomadas de 11 especies de colibríes en el Parque Nacional Natural Amacayacu, Amazonas, Colombia. Las especies más generalistas transportaron cargas de polen con mayor cantidad de granos.
