Short summary
Flower morphology, playing a key role in determining which visitors are pollinators, is known to vary among species and cultivars within species. Blueberry flowers have morphology that limits access to rewards, constraining pollination to specific species. We identified the main pollinators of several blueberry cultivars, along with related visitors and visit rates to flower morphology. Our results indicate that cultivar flower morphology and pollinator proboscis size are important in blueberry pollination.
