Abstract

Insect visitors to the endemic the endemic Dwarf Lake Iris (Iris lacustris) have no previously been reported. Halictid bees (Augochlorella striata) were observed visiting I. lacustris at Dorcas Bay, Bruse Peninsula, Ontario, in late May 1996. Their floral visitation and governing behaviours suggest that they are potential pollinators.
