“…The "mistake" pollination of nutmegs is quite different from the pollination syndromes found in other families of the Magnoliales (Annonaceae, Degeneriaceae, Eupomatiaceae, Himantandraceae, Magnoliaceae and Myristicaceae) in the topology of Soltis et al [1,25,26,[63][64][65][66][67]. In terms of floral organization, the nutmegs with small, unisexual, few-parted flowers and mistake pollination have more in common with some members of some ANA grade families (e.g., Amborellaceae), where unisexual flowers, pollen rewards, and food deceit are fairly common biologies [35]. A generalist entomophily involving beetles, thrips, micropterigid moths, as well as dipterans, and hymenopterans was proposed for ancestral angiosperms [68], and as more of the nutmegs are studied, this list is likely to describe their associated pollinators.…”
