Can Pollination Networks Withstand Species Loss? An Examination of Plant–Hummingbird Interactions and Their Responses to Experimental Removal of a Flowering Plant Species

Abstract:

Global environmental change is causing local extinctions of species. When species depend on one another, as in the mutualistic relationship between plants and pollinators, loss of one interaction partner may cause cascading effects within the community – such as additional extinctions and reduced pollination services.
