Flowering Entomofauna in Nerium oleander L. (Apocinaceae)
Keywords:
Pollination, flower visitors , floweringAbstract
Diversity and constancy of Nerium oleander L. (Apocinaceae) flowering insects presence in different flowering phases (initial, middle and final ones) and visiting times (from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.) were studied, with a view to its pollination.
