Hi, One more video showing how the flowers attract insects by variation in the colour of petals. The flowers of Delonix regia are very attractive. But what is attractive to human eyes ( the scarlet coloured petals) is probably not so attractive for insects. U vil notice in the video that bees are mainly attracted towards the largest petal of the flower which is marked with yellow and white. the video is taken at Tadgaum, near Vapi in the month of June 2010. the link is below.
