Nearby rainforest promotes coffee pollination by increasing spatio-temporal stability in bee species richness (2009, background): “, 2008) and the changes in the temporal continuity of flower resources on site may lead to changes in species identity over time as different pollinator groups are attracted by different flower designs, forms, and densities (Thompson, 2001; Hegland and Boeke, 2006).”
The role of resources and risks in regulating wild bee populations. (2011, background): “For example, bumble bee forager abundance in small plots within a 50 × 50 m swath of Norwegian grassland was determined largely by the presence of highly rewarding tubular flowers and not overall floral richness (43).”
Weed-insect pollinator networks as bio-indicators of ecological sustainability in agriculture. A review (2016, background): “Among Diptera, the widespread presence of Syrphidae (e.g., Eristalis arbustorum (L.)) has been considered as a good indicator of plant biodiversity (Hegland and Boeke 2006).”
Opportunities to enhance pollinator biodiversity in solar parks (2021, background): “represents counts of 2–5, the dark shade represents counts of 6–20 and the darkest shade represents counts of 21 or higher [215,216].”
How does climate warming affect plant-pollinator interactions? (2009, background): “…the reproductive success of plant species, for example through increased visitation rates as a result of altered pollinator behaviour and composition of the pollinator community ultimately increasing out-crossing rates and seed production (e.g., van Treuren et al. 1994; Hegland & Totland 2005).”
Resource Heterogeneity Moderates the Biodiversity-Function Relationship in Real World Ecosystems (2008, background): “Different pollinator groups have been shown to be attracted by different floral designs, forms, abundances, and densities, and this can depend largely on their foraging behavior [38,51].”
How does plant richness affect pollinator richness and temporal stability of flower visits (2008, background): “In addition to the richness of flowering plant species, the availability of food resources (blossom cover) was expected to show a strong impact on the pollinators, as found by Hegland and Boeke (2006).”
Pollinator Diversity: Distribution, Ecological Function, and Conservation (2017, background): “As so often in ecology, patterns that we see are scale dependent; for example, Hegland & Boeke (2006), using plots of 1.5 × 1.5 m, found no correlation between overall plant and pollinator richness.”
Larger patches of diverse floral resources increase insect pollinator density, diversity, and their pollination of native wildflowers (2014, result): “This corresponds to previous research that emonstrated hoverfly activity was predicted by plant species ichness (Hegland & Boeke 2006), but as mentioned earlier overfly adults may also be responding to prey density or ost quality for oviposition (Sutherland et al. 2001) and this ay be more…”
Beyond nectar provision: the other resource requirements of parasitoid biological control agents (2016, background): “…and the amount, density, and diversity of floral resources required to improve pest suppression services (van Emden, 1990; Andow, 1991; W€ackers et al., 2005; Hegland & Boeke, 2006; Lavandero et al., 2006; Araj et al., 2008; Haaland et al., 2011; Letourneau et al., 2011; Blaauw & Isaacs, 2012).”
Co-flowering neighbors influence the diversity and identity of pollinator groups visiting plant species. (2009, background): “2008) and at smaller scale (Hegland and Boeke 2006), probably because diverse and rich communities and neighbourhoods may attract a much diverse”
