In flowering plants with specialized pollination, a tight fit is expected between floral and pollinator morphologies, and variation in flower size is likely to be maladaptive because pollinators remain of more or less fixed size and behaviour. Berg (1959, 1960) hypothesized that the maintenance of the fit between the floral traits responsible for pollen transfer […]
