Obligate Pollination Mutualism
Springer Verlag, Japan
978-4-431-56814-8 (ISBN)
This book offers researchers and students in the field of ecology, botany, evolutionary biology, pollination biology, entomology, and tropical biology fascinating insights into why such a costly pollination system has evolved and why Phyllanthaceae is so diverse despite the inconspicuousness of their flowers.
