Bees and white spiders: unravelling the pollination syndrome of Caladenia rigida (Orchidaceae)

2009-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Orchids of the genus Caladenia have been shown to utilise two quite different pollination strategies, namely species-specific sexual deception of thynnine wasps and a more generalist strategy attracting a larger spectrum of foraging insects. While baiting techniques have enabled the identification of numerous pollinators of sexually deceptive Caladenia, insects that pollinate food-advertising species have received...
