<div dir="ltr">Dear Colleagues, Coauthors and Family:<div><br></div><div>The Pollinator Partnership is a site managed by NAPPC (North American Pollinator Protection Campaign). They invited Dr Edens-Meier and I to help them design a poster on orchid pollination in North America and provide text for their website explaining the poster. Let me assure all coauthors on "Darwin's orchids Then and Now" (University of Chicago Press, October 15, 2014) that we did NOT being work for NAPPC until AFTER the edited ms. of your book went to the publishers at University of Chicago Press. </div>
<div><br></div><div>The following link will take you to the poster and web pages that explain the poster. We do NOT request that you purchase the poster. Please do note that Dr Edens-Meier and I wrote up almost all the text on the orchid species page and almost half of the text for the pollinator page. Perhaps colleagues in Australia, China, Israel would consider a similar project for their own orchid floras? The amazing. embedded footage of the cricket pollinating the African orchid was, of course, provided with the permission of Dr. Micheneau. Of course, you might also enjoy visiting other links on these pages including the so-called "drunken wasp" foraging on Epipactis near Darwin's house. If you enjoy this site please share it.</div>
