dc.description.abstract | Measurements of nectar volume and sugar concentration along two elevational gradients, in flower exclusion experiments, and over a diurnal cycle of nectar production, were compared for invasive Lantana camara
and endemic Lantana peduncularis in the Galápagos Islands during the
dry season. Both species show the same pollination syndrome and are pollinated by Lepidoptera. L. camara flowers had a higher nectar volume than L. peduncularis at every elevation and higher total sugar content. However, nectar in L. peduncularis flowers was much more concentrated
than in L. camara at lower elevations. The differences in nectar production between Lantana species seemed to be intrinsic and related to contrasting strategies to cope with drought. Nectar volume of unbagged flowers of L. camara was lower than bagged flowers at sunrise, which was probably related to the consumption of nectar by nocturnal Lepidoptera. Nectar removal by floral visitors had a pronounced effect on the total amount of nectar secreted by L. camara flowers, while the sugar concentration did not vary significantly. Our results suggest that L. camara may compete with
L. peduncularis for pollinators. | es |
