[Pollinator] Fwd: New publication of Tacca

Ever wonder how that bat flower plant (Tacca) on your windowsill or
greenhouse shelf is pollinated?  Take a look at the attached.  Note how the
pollen clumps when it is deposited on the back of the midge's thorax,
reminiscent of pollination in so many orchids.  The study was conducted in
Singapore.  Sorry, Gary, this is one you missed.
