Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association The sensitivity of secondary local extinction risk to phenological mismatch with generalist and specialist bee pollinators varies by latitude.
- Association The sensitivity of secondary local extinction risk to phenological mismatch with specialist bees showed a sharper decline at higher latitudes.
- Recommendation Conservation priorities based solely on primary extinction risk may be insufficient to support self-sustaining populations of Viola spp.
- Recommendation Secondary extinction risk from plant-pollinator mismatch should be incorporated into future global conservation frameworks.
