Morphological Complexity as a Floral Signal: From Perception by Insect Pollinators to Co-Evolutionary Implications
Morphologically complex flowers are characterized by bilateral symmetry, tube-like shapes, deep corolla tubes, fused petals, and/or poricidal anthers, all of which constrain the access of insect visitors to floral nectar and pollen rewards. Only a subset of potential pollinators, mainly large bees,...
