The ecological pollination syndromes of insect‐pollinated plants in an alpine meadow
Ecological Research, 1986Abstract The insect pollination of an alpine plant community consisting of herbs and shrubs, was observed on Mt. Kisokoma‐ga‐take, central Honshu, Japan. There were two main groups of pollinators, syrphid flies and bumble bees. Although some shrubs were visited by both types of insects, other shrubs and the herbs were visited by ...

Flora - Morphology, Distribution, Functional Ecology of Plants, 2006
Pollination of Cyclamen persicum (Primulaceae) was studied in two wild populations in Israel. Buzz-pollination proved to be extremely rare, and performed by a large Anthophora bee only. The most frequent pollinators were various unspecialized species of thrips (Thysanoptera) and hoverflies (Syrphidae).

Pollination syndromes and pollinator shifts in melastomataceae
Angiosperm flowers have a large spectrum of animal pollinators including among others bees, flies, birds, and bats. Shifts between different functional groups of pollinators (e.g., from bees to hummingbirds) are thought to be key drivers of floral morphological diversity (disparity).openaire +1 more source

Convergent evolution of floral traits driven by pollinators has resulted in floral syndromes shared among different plant lineages. However, the flowers of many plant species are often visited by different pollinator groups, which apparently contradict the idea of syndromes.

Recently I came across a paper on the pollination of the terrestrial orchid Listera ovata and I have observed with pleasure that the author also checked on the ’reverse’ side of pollination, viz. the question whether cross-pollination by insects is compulsory. This reminded me of the large list of Malesian orchids which Dr. J.J.

The pollination biology of Burmeistera (Campanulaceae): specialization and syndromes
American Journal of Botany, 2006The floral traits of plants with specialized pollination systems both facilitate the primary pollinator and restrict other potential pollinators. To explore interactions between pollinators and floral traits of the genus Burmeistera, I filmed floral visitors and measured pollen deposition for 10 species in six cloud forest sites throughout northern ...

Why Are Flowers Different? Pollination Syndromes—The Theory
2007AbstractIt is clear from a merely cursory glance around any garden in the summer months that flowers come in an enormous variety of sizes, shapes, colours, and scents. The book now focusses on the differences between flowers, as opposed to the molecular similarities that unite them. This chapter begins by considering the different ways that flowers can

Ant‐Pollination: Conditional Outcomes Depending on Environmental Features and Species Interactions
Journal of applied entomologyThe intricate web of interactions in nature has led to unexpected partnerships between plants and animals, greatly influencing ecosystem dynamics. In this discussion, we'll explore the Pollination Syndrome Hypothesis and consider a scenario where a ...
