Research Abstract

This study investigated whether and how the interaction between plants and insect pollinators promote the diversification of each other using a highly specialized association between Phyllanthaceae plants and Epicephala moths. A phylogenetic analysis of the plants and moths suggested that Phyllanthaceae lineages engaged in mutualism with Epicephala moths diversified more rapidly than their sister groups with non-Epicephala pollination. This study is one of very few examples that clearly demonstrate the role of animal pollinators in promoting plant diversification.
