The behavioral ecology of nectar robbing: why be tactic constant?
Abstract
It is documented that even though individuals can switch foraging tactics, they often do not, and hypotheses of floral constancy are extended to understand when and why visitors exhibit tactic constancy and raise questions for future research.
