Reconnecting plants and pollinators: challenges in the restoration of pollination mutualisms
Ecological restoration of plant–pollinator interactions has received surprisingly little
attention, despite animal-mediated pollination underpinning reproduction of the majority of …

Linking bees and flowers: how do floral communities structure pollinator communities?
Pollinators provide essential ecosystem services, and declines in some pollinator
communities around the world have been reported. Understanding the fundamental …

Biology of the Neotropical orchid genus Catasetum: A historical review on floral scent chemistry and pollinators
P Milet-Pinheiro, G Gerlach - Perspectives in Plant Ecology, Evolution and …, 2017 - Elsevier
Abstract The Neotropical genus Catasetum is one of the most notable orchids because of its
unusual reproductive strategy. In contrast to most orchids, all of the ca. 170 Catasetum …

Ups and downs in pollinator populations: when is there a decline?
DW Roubik - Conservation ecology, 2001 - JSTOR
Plant-pollinator systems inherently possess wide variation that limits the applicability of
surveys on population dynamics or diversity. Stable habitats are scarcely studied, whereas …

Long-term ecology of euglossine orchid-bees (Apidae: Euglossini) in Panama
Abundance patterns during 6–7 years and orchid visitation were determined for 51 species
of the 57 local euglossine bees. Male bees were counted at 3 chemical attractants …
