Timing of phenological events and visitor activity during sexually functional phases of Desmopsis terriflora flowers. The pistillate phase occurs between 1400 hours and 1800–1900 hours of the day, during this phase the floral visitors (light green: flies, blue: ants) are attracted by the strong banana-like odor in the flowers. The pistillate phase is succeeded by a long interim period of 11–12 h, during which the flowers were not sexually functional, neither floral scent dissipated, nor floral visitors observed. The staminate phase occurs between 1200–1300 hours of the second day, during which there is an obvious increase in floral scent and visitors are again attracted. Note that the beetles (dark green) are only present in the staminate phase.
