The pollination systems displayed by orchid flowers have inspired biologists over the centuries. However, despite the economic importance of the genus Vanilla, little attention has been given to the pollination mechanisms and attraction of pollinators in these plants. However, previous studies reveal the most pollination strategies seem to be related to the attraction of male Euglossine b…
The Neotropical region is the richest of the world. As occur in many plant families, among the orchids, many genera are endemic to the Neotropical region, including Catasetum L. C. Rich., with 147 species. There are over fifty years is known that the species of Catasetum are pollinated by male euglossine bees, which collect fragrances on flowers. However, data on anatomy and histochemical…
Liparis comprises ca. 320 species distributed mainly throughout the tropical and subtropical regions. Practically nothing is known about the reproductive biology of this species-rich genus. Six species of Liparis are found in Brazil, and data about reproductive biology of Brazilian taxa are absent. For this study were selected two sympatric species: Liparis nervosa, which occurs inside th…
Since the first studies involving plants, carnivory has intrigued researchers with respect to the diversity of traps, how these plants attract and capture the animals, types of glands related to digestion, and other vegetative features. Although the mechanisms involved in the prey capture are well studied, data on their pollinators and reproduction strategy are very scarce, whereas, for U…
