Pollination and the Generic Status of Blancoa canescens Lindl. (Haemodoraceae)
Abstract
Blancoa canescens is bird pollinated and self incompatible. The floral charaoters separating this species as a monotypic genus from Conostylis R.br. are related to this mode of pollination. Diversity in other sections of Conostylis s. str. is as great as that shown by Blancoa.
