Flower size is a crucial trait for pollinator attraction. In flowers with poricidal anthers, the plant
constraints the pollinator's access to the flower's rewards by enclosing pollen grains in …

Convergent reproductive traits in non‐related plants may be the result of similar
environmental conditions and/or specialised interactions with pollinators. Here, we …

Studies on hummingbird–plant interactions commonly use a pollination approach
emphasizing mutualistic relationships. But floral resources are often used opportunistically …

Hummingbirds in the Cerrado, the seasonal savannas in Central Brazil, visit both
ornithophilous and non-ornithophilous flowers to collect nectar, which is the main source of …

RESUMO O presente estudo teve como objetivo o inventário e tratamento taxonômico das

Specialized plants like those in genus Geissomeria Lindl.(Acanthaceae) seem to depend
directly on pollination by hummingbirds for reproduction. The goal of this study was to …

Abstract In the Neotropics, Ericaceae species occur mainly at high altitudes being adapted
to pollination by bees or hummingbirds. These species are mainly self-compatible, a …

Among vertebrate pollinators, hummingbirds are the most important group in the Neotropics
