Flower visitation by orthopterans, particularly by taxa from Southeast Asia, was only recently brought to light in a report on the diversity and network of 41 orthopteran taxa from Southeast Asia visiting flowers of 35 plant taxa. Continued efforts to document flower visitation by orthopterans have led to 104 new incidences of flower visitation by orthopterans, including 17 new orthopteran taxa.

Cameroon and Angola, accession palms oil, were two plants with different flower architectures such as bunch size, bunch length, number of spikelets and flowers, and volatile compounds produced. The difference in flower characteristics was thought to affect the presence of flower-visiting insects in the two palm oil accessions. The study aimed to determine the insects that visit Cameroon and Angola palm oil flower accessions. Insects that visit flowers were collected directly, using yellow pan traps, swing nets, and aspirators. Collected flower-visiting insects were identified as species. Diver

Abstract Many arthropods exhibit flower-visiting behavior, including a variety of spider species. However, as spiders are assumed to be strictly predatory, flower-visiting spiders are an often neglected group. We conducted a systematic biodiversity study of flower-visiting spiders based on published papers and field surveys. Most previous studies have focused on the herbivorous behavior of flower-visiting spiders (nectivory or pollinivory) and their effects on host flowers (tritrophic interactions with flower-visiting insects). In our field survey, we utilized standard transect walks (active s

The study of insect–plant interactions such as flower visitors, pollinators, and florivores, are important for understanding the natural world. However, not all flower-visiting insects are equally well known, especially in the biodiverse Southeast Asian region. One group is the orthopterans, comprising of grasshoppers, crickets, and katydids. Natural history observations were made around Southeast Asia to document flower-visiting orthopterans. Owing to the limited studies on the ecology of orthopterans in Southeast Asia, we provide here the first documentation of flower-visiting orthopterans f

Abstract Evolutionary forces have developed many types of insect-plant interactions over millennia, ranging from herbivory, which causes damage, to mutualism between plant pollinators. Pollinators are a very important part of the natural history of plant evolution. Plants have evolved distinguished characteristics of flowers that attract many types of insects. Other than pollinators, flower-visiting insects also consist of various insect groups. The aim of this research was to assess the breadth and depths of research on flower-visiting insects.

Due to the decline of European honey bees (Apis mellifera), main pollinators of cucurbits, there is a need to explore other cucurbits flowers visiting insects to supplement pollination services and for their conservation. Studies were carried out in the two agroecological zones of Morogoro Region, Eastern - Central Tanzania. We assessed visitation abundance, visitation frequency and visitation rate of four cucurbits flowers visiting insects under the family Syrphidae [Eristalinus megacephalus

Abstract:

Insects are invertebrate fauna that are important in various ecosystems and have high diversity and adaptability to various habitats. Insect diversity plays an important role (pollinator, pest control, or natural enemy) in several sectors, such as agriculture, ecology, human health, and natural resources. Apart from their beneficial role, the presence of insects can also be detrimental to humans; for example, insects can cause damage to agricultural products. Therefore, this research aimed to determine the diversity and role of insect visitors to the flowers of the Israeli grass plant (Asystas

This study aimed to determine the diversity of insects that visit flower plants planted among oil palm plants. This study used the Scan Sampling method or direct observation. Insects found in L. camara plants were collected and identified. The results showed that there were 11 species belonging to 11 families and 7 orders.

Despite the rising interest in biotic interactions in mountain ecosystems, little is known about high-altitude flower-visiting arthropods. In particular, since the research in these environment can be limited or undermined by harsh conditions and logistical difficulties, it is mandatory to develop effective approaches that maximize possibilities to gather high-quality data. Here we compared two different methods, manual sampling and video observations, to investigate the interactions between the high-mountain arthropod community and flowers of Androsace brevis (Primulaceae), a vulnerable endem

Bees, hoverflies and butterflies are taxa frequently studied as pollinators in agricultural and conservation contexts. Although there are many records of non-syrphid Diptera visiting flowers, they are generally not regarded as important pollinators. We use data from 30 pollen-transport networks and 71 pollinator-visitation networks to compare the importance of various flower-visiting taxa as pollen-vectors. We specifically compare non-syrphid Diptera and Syrphidae to determine whether neglect of the former in the literature is justified. We found no significant difference in pollen-loads betwe

In dioecious plant species differences in morphology and resources between female and male flowers can have consequences for flower visitation rates. Female flowers sometimes lack pollen and can be less attractive to pollinators than male flowers. We studied the pollination ecology of the dioecious tree Commiphora guillauminii in a dry deciduous forest in western Madagascar. We recorded floral display, visiting insect species and visitation rates for female and male trees. The results showed that female trees produce significantly larger but fewer flowers per inflorescence than male ones. Numb

In this study, we measured the visiting activity and pollination of three species of stingless bees, i.e., Tetragonula laeviceps, Lepidotrigona terminata, and Heterotrigona itama in mustard (Brassica rapa). Visiting activity of stingless bees were observed in mustard plants caged by an insect screen. The observations were done visually per hour, starting from 07:00 until 16:00, using the focal sampling method. The visiting activities observed were flower handling time, foraging rate, an

Abstract:

Many pollinators tend to move between flowers of the same species of plant even when flowers of other species are available. Reasons for this behaviour (known as flower constancy) are unclear. One possible explanation (proposed by Darwin) is that flower handling methods learned on one plant species interfere with previously learned handling methods of other plant species. Darwin's hypothesis was tested by measuring the constancy of bumble bees (Bombus fervidus) foraging in the field and looking for evidence of interference (increased handling times and flower handling errors) when bees switche

Jacquemontia curtisii Peter ex Hallier f. is common in the pine rocklands of the southern part of peninsular Florida, with its white star-shaped flowers open to visits from many species of arthropods. Its flowers are visited by a wide array of insects, especially Hymenoptera and Lepidoptera. To determine if any of these flower visitors are specialized to J. curtisii, we observed visitors to the flowers of this species, catching visitors and sampling the pollen from their bodies. We examined stigmas of J. curtisii from 12 different sites to see how many plant species’ pollen was found and the s
