Short summary
We evaluated shifts in plant–pollinator communities between two years with different precipitation patterns on a mountain gradient in Arizona. We found that plant richness decreased, pollinator generalization increased at the highest life zone, and plant and pollinator activity was less consistent in the dry year. As drought is expected to increase worldwide, understanding local-scale plant–pollinator interactions may highlight which species will be critical in times of lower precipitation.
