QuéSenecio del Cabo (Senecio inaequidens)Observ.mariedelportDescripciónTypical leaves |
Butterfly visiting flower |
| Flower was initially closed when first observed at 08h24. Challenging for bee species to enter. When observed later when visited by Oxythrea at 08h53, the stronger beetle had opened the flower to a greater extent to access the nectar at the base. This allowed the associated bee species easier access (.https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/198571813 and https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/198571812). | |

When observed later when visited by Oxythrea at 08h53, the stronger beetle had opened the flower more to access the nectar at the base. This allowed the associated bee species easier access. | |
| Bees ignored pollen and went straight to the base for nectar. Pollen attached when bee moved around to get nectar and leaving flower. | |

| Unsure if legitimate pollinator. Flowers strongly scented, especially at night, suggesting it is moth pollinated. | |
