A Study of the role of Bombus as a Robust Main Pollinator Across Different Habitats of Penstemon digitalis.

This study focuses on the morphology and reproductive success of Penstemon digitalis in prairie and wetland habitats. We collected pollinator and morphological data and compared between habitats. A correlation was found in the wetland habitat between plants with a smaller display size having a higher visitation rate. Our results also showed no difference in morphology between the habitats as well as Bombus remaining the main pollinator, supporting its role as a robust main pollinator of P. digitalis.
