The effect of proboscis and corolla tube lengths on patterns and rates of flower visitation by bumblebees
Abstract
The results indicate significant correlations between proboscis length and time spent by bees on flowers, and suggest that bumblebees of short probosc is length prefer and are more efficient on short corolla tubes.
