Aim We review several aspects of the structure of regional and local assemblages of nectar‐
feeding birds and bats and their relationships with food plants to determine the extent to …

A putative correlation between nectar sugar composition and pollination syndrome was
evaluated in the tribe Sinningieae (Neotropical Gesneriaceae). Sucrose, fructose and …

Although specialized interactions, including those involving plants and their pollinators, are
often invoked to explain high species diversity, they are rarely explored at …

The reproductive patterns and feeding habits of three sympatric nectarivorous bats,
