Breeding system and pollination ecology of Impatiens reptans

Tian et al. (167-175) are the first to report pollination by butterflies of Impatiens reptans, a species endemic to subtropical China. In addition, seven other insect pollinators or nectar robbers are identified. Nectar robbers are shown to be active mainly during late flowering, thereby hastening the end of flowering for the population. The authors discuss reasons for the limited distribution of I. reptans.
