“…According to the Most Effective Pollinator Principle, a flower’s characteristics will be molded by those pollinators that visit it most frequently and effectively in the region where it is, but this does not mean that the flower is pollinated exclusively by this vector (sensu Stebbins, 1970). Pollination by the Hymenoptera (mainly bees) and/or Diptera orders is common in Sapotaceae species (e.g., Manilkara subsericea , Pouteria venosa , Sideroxylon obtusifolium and Vitellaria paradoxa ) (Gomes & Pinheiro, 2007; Gomes et al, 2010; Kiill et al, 2014; Lassen et al, 2018) and other families with floral attributes similar to neotropical Sapotaceae, such as Erythroxylaceae, Flacourtiaceae (e.g., Bawa et al, 1985; Oliveira & Gibbs, 2000) and Rhamnaceae (e.g., Medan & Arce, 1999 and references). In Panama, Chrysophyllum cainito seems to be pollinated mainly by species of Tetragonisca bees (Gonzálvez, Chen, & Rodríguez‐Gironés, 2015; Parker et al, 2010).…”
