Both geitonogamous and xenogamous pollinations produce fruit, but the latter mode is superior. The flowers are zygomorphic and gullet type. They open during 0300-1900 h, and are visited only by diurnally active insects during 0600-1500 h. Bees are the dominant foragers, of whichXylocopa andAmegilla carry pollen on the head and/or thorax to effect nototribic pollination.Xylocopa was more frequent and proved to be the major pollinator.
