Weevils are an unusually species-rich group of phytophagous insects for which there is
increasing evidence of frequent involvement in brood-site pollination. This study examines …

Communities of plants and their insect brood pollinators have provided important insights
into the evolution of mutualism. The discovery of new systems has the potential to extend our …

Premise Variation in pollen‐ovule ratios is thought to reflect the degree of pollen transfer
efficiency—the more efficient the process, the fewer pollen grains needed. Few studies have …

In tropical environments, and especially tropical rainforests, a major part of pollination
services is provided by diverse insect lineages. Unbeknownst to most, beetles, and more …

Weevils from the tribe Derelomini (Curculionidae: Curculioninae) are specialized brood
pollinators engaged in mutualistic relationships with several angiosperm lineages. In brood …

The obligate pollination mutualism between Yucca and yucca moths is a classical example
of coevolution. Oviposition and active pollination by female yucca moths occur at night when …

Brood‐site pollination mutualisms represent extreme levels of reciprocal specialization
between plants and insects. Several studies have revealed intimate associations between …

Brood pollination is one of the more unusual ways in which plants reproduce. The plant has
to trade off damage to its flowers and reduction in future offspring in exchange for the …

Anchylorhynchus Schoenherr is a genus of palm-associated weevils currently including 22
described species in the Neotropics. These weevils engage in brood pollination interactions …

Methods: In this study, We utilized monochrome plates for binary-choice tests to determine
weevil color preferences, conducted behavioral choice experiments, using trackballs …
