Hsunycteris thomasi pollinating Marcgravia longifolia

Nectar-feeding bats are key pollinators for a wide range of tropical plants 🦇🌺

I’ll be presenting our findings on the pollination of Marcgravia longifolia at #ECTE2026 tomorrow (Thursday Feb 26) in the camera trap session.

Gene Flow and Vertical Stratification of Pollination in the Bat‐Pollinated Liana Marcgravia longifolia This study investigates pollen dispersal, vertical stratification of gene flow, and spatial genetic structure in the bat-pollinated liana Marcgravia longifolia in a western Amazonian forest.

From the forest floor to the canopy, bats keep rainforest vines genetically connected through pollination 🦇 Check out our new paper published in @ecol-evol.bsky.social. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @katrinheer.bsky.social

Happy to share our results on vertical stratification of plant-nectarivore interactions during the symposium on "Studying rainforest canopies with camera traps" at #ATBC2025
