Contrasting effects of exotic plant invasions and managed honeybees on plant–flower visitor interactions
Aim To explore how a highly invasive plant species (Buddleja davidii Franch.), managed honeybees and flower diversity affected plant–flower visitor interactions over the whole elevational range distribution of the exotic plant. Location Italian Alps. Methods We selected nine pairs of sites (one invaded and one non‐invaded by B. davidii ) across gradients in honeybee abundance and diversity of flower resources. We observed plant–flower visitor interactions every three weeks, for a total of five surveys covering the full flowering season of B. davidii (June–August). We tested how B.
