Question

Bauhinia megalandra is an example of which type of pollination?

Options

• Entomophily

• Hydrophily

• Anemophily

• Chiropterophily

Answer 1

Bauhinia megalandra is listed as an example of a chiropterophilous plant, meaning it is pollinated by bats. Like other chiropterophilous flowers, it possesses adaptations such as dull coloration, strong fragrance, abundant nectar, and large edible pollen quantities that make it attractive to bats for nocturnal foraging and pollination.
