Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Ten bee species visited the orchid.
- Observation Lipotriches sp. effectively pollinated the orchid.
- Observation Lasioglossum orbatum effectively pollinated the orchid.
- Observation Apis mellifera effectively pollinated the orchid and made the most pollinia removals and depositions.
- Observation Pollinators were absent from some candidate translocation sites.
- Association Bee richness and abundance increased significantly with grassland remnant size.
- Intervention effect Wahlenbergia stricta within 30 cm significantly enhanced orchid pollination.
- Intervention effect Dianella reflexa did not enhance orchid pollination.
- Recommendation The authors recommend pollinator surveys before Diuris translocations and preference for larger remnants.
