Pollination of passiflora: Do different pollinators serve species belonging to different subgenera?

The pollination of 6 species of Passiflora (Passifloraceae) belonging to 3 subgenera was studied: P. caerulea, P. mooreana (subg. Passiflora), P. urnaefolia, P. misera (subg. Decaloba), P. foetida, and P.chrysophylla (subg. Dysosmia). The main pollinators of P. mooreana, P. caerulea and P. urnaefoli...
