* Diurnal and nocturnal pollination of Silene latifolia.
* Measuring the effect of nectar robbers on male and female reproductive success in Impatiens capensis and I. pallida
* How can bees tell if a flower has been robbed?
- * How do bees decide which flowers to visit? Can they detect nectar quantity? Odor of previous visitors?
