Abstract
Spring temperature increases could differentially affect flowering times and pollinator flight periods, leading to asynchrony and reduced pollination. A specialist orchid-bee study combining herbarium, museum and field data shows that bee flight dates are advancing faster than orchid flowering, which could lead to significant future uncoupling.
摘要
春季气温升高可能会对开花时间和传粉者飞行期产生不同影响，导致不同步并减少授粉。一项结合了植物标本馆、博物馆和实地数据的关于兰花蜜蜂的专项研究表明，蜜蜂飞行日期的提前速度比兰花开花更快，这可能导致未来出现显著的脱节现象。
