“…Pollination studies ofthe Vaccinioideae have generally been confined to either samples of native floral visitors at wild blueberries (Boulangeretal., 1967;Finnamore and Neary, 1978;Judd,1966;l(evan, 1975;Phipps, 1930;Reader, 1977;Small, 1976;Vander Kloet, 1976) or else experimental manipulations of honey bee (Apis mellifera) densities at domestic cultivars (Brewer, Dobson and Nelson, 1969;Dorr and Martin, 1966;Filmer and Marucci, 1963;Lee, 1958;Lomond and Larson, 1983;Wood, 1961a, b). Dorr (1981) has produced the most comprehensive pollination study for a species of Ericaceae to date, with the pollinators of Zenobia pulverulenta. The more abundant native bee visitors to Vaccinium, such as species of Bombus, Andrena, Dialictus, and Colletes, collect pollen as well as nectar (Phipps, 1930;Reader, 1977;Rajotte, 1979) for use in larval provisions (Rajotte, 1979).…”
