Plant-pollinator interactions and floral convergence in two species of Heliconia from the Caribbean Islands.

Oecologia - 1 Dec 2011

Martén-Rodríguez Silvana, Kress W John, Temeles Ethan J, Meléndez-Ackerman Elvia

Abstract excerpt

Variation in interspecific interactions across geographic space is a potential driver of diversification and local adaptation. This study quantitatively examined variation in floral phenotypes and pollinator service of Heliconia bihai and H. caribaea across three Antillean islands. The prediction was that floral characters would correspond to the major pollinators of these species on each island. Analysis of...
