The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Insights from measuring pollen deposition: quantifying the pre-eminence of bees as flower visitors and effective pollinators (2017, background): “As an example, in Kenya, the mean SVD for bombyliids was 107 ± 15, but 49 ± 16 for syrphids (although higher at 91 ± 26 if just the larger and more effective eristaline hoverflies were included; cf. Kwak and Bekker 2006).”
Food in a row: urban trees offer valuable floral resources to pollinating insects (2016, background): “The volume and sugar concentration of the produced nectar fell within the range of other bee-pollinated tree species (Percival 1961; Waser and Ollerton 2006) and was similar to those reported in previous studies (T. cordata and T. platyphyllos, Anderson 1976; Aesculus, Burke et al. 2000).”
Weed-insect pollinator networks as bio-indicators of ecological sustainability in agriculture. A review (2016, background): “Plant-insect pollinator networks are largely mutualistic networks , providing benefits for both plants and insects (Waser and Ollerton 2006).”
