Hamm Fact sheet pollinators: Beetles (Coleoptera) Specific remarks: Beetles belong to the oldest group of flower visiting and pollinating animals. In the earthhistory Hymenoptera, Diptera or Lepidoptera appeared later. Some authors believe that beetles are essentially responsible for the radiation of angiosperms. Today beetles still remain important pollinators especially for ancient plants like magnolias or spicebushes. Authors' address: Dr. Andreé Hamm, Institute of Crop Science and Resource Conservation Section Ecology of Cultural Landscape (Zoo-Ecology), University of Bonn, Melbweg 42, 53127 Bonn, Germany.

Schuchmann Fact sheet pollinators: Avian pollinators: Hummingbirds, Sunbirds, Honeyeaters, Hawaiian Honeycreepers (Trochilidae,Nectariniidae, Meliphagidae, Carduelidae) POLLINATOR GROUP: BIRDS Author: Karl-L. Schuchmann I. Hummingbirds Family Trochilidae Order Apodiformes Non-Passeres Species number New world: c. 330 Number of genera: 115 Distribution Blue-throated Hummingbird (Lampornis clemenciae), Arizona, USA, visiting flowers of Penstemon sp. (Scrophulariaceae), Photo: Karl-L. Schuchmann New World only (Nearctic and Neotropical Region). Extremely wide range of habitats from sea-level to Andean snowfields and glaciers above 4000 m, absent only in extreme hot South American deserts (Peru and Chile). Highest species diversity in the equator-near mountains (Andes, Atlantic Rain Forest Mts. of Brazil) between 1000-2000 m a.s.l. (Schuchmann 1999). 70% of all species occur in South America, species number declines strongly with increasing latitudes. Hummingbird biology and pollination Hummingbirds are the smallest of all nectarivorous birds. Their body mass ranges from 1.9 to 22 g. Thousands of New World plant species rely exclusively upon hummingbirds for pollination. As a consequence of the year-round high energy requirements of trochilids, plants that are pollinated by hummingbirds provide nectar at all times of the year, creating the opportunity of a phenological displacement of flowering times as a means of reducing interspecific pollen flow. 170
