DOI: 10.1002/ece3.8619
Abstract: Abstract Understanding how urbanization alters functional interactions among pollinators and plants is critically important given increasing anthropogenic land use and declines in pollinator populations. Pollinators often exhibit short‐term specialization and visit plants of the same… read more here.
