Which animals pollinate different members of the order Myrtales?

Members of the order Myrtales are primarily adapted for animal pollination, utilizing various visitors to facilitate the transfer of pollen.1

Primary Pollinators by Family

• Lythraceae: These flowers are frequently visited by bees and butterflies, which carry pollen on different parts of their bodies to effect cross-pollination.1
• Myrtaceae: Pollination is typically accomplished by insects, especially bees, though moths and butterflies also contribute. Certain Eucalyptus and Metrosideros species are pollinated by birds, particularly honeyeaters.1
• Melastomataceae: Most species are adapted for pollen-collecting bees. However, species that offer nectar are pollinated by a wider range of visitors, including hummingbirds, bats, wasps, and rodents.1
• Combretaceae and Onagraceae: While primarily insect-pollinated, some members—such as Fuchsia and certain evening primroses—are pollinated by birds.1

Additionally, Sonneratia is pollinated by bats and hawk moths, while other small families within the order are pollinated by either birds or insects.1
