Regional matrix of interactions between 113 plant (columns) and 418 flower visitor (rows) species constructed from eight pollination webs from NW Patagonia, Argentina (for further details on original webs see Devoto et al., 2005). Four types of interactions are labelled, A: generalist plants interacting with generalist flower visitors; B: specialist plants interacting with generalist flower visitors; C: specialist flower visitors interacting with generalist plants; D: specialist plants interacting with specialist flower visitors.

... the degree of nestedness, all webs were significantly nested. For all webs, includ- ing the regional web (Figure 3), the probability that the matrix was randomly generated was P<0.05 (Monte Carlo test; n=1000 runs; Table 1). ...
Context 2
... can be appreciated in the regional matrix (constructed at the start of our model- ing procedure) by sorting first rows (plants) and then columns (flower visitors) from the most generalist to the most specialist species (Figure 3). The salient feature that immediately arises is that both generalist and specialist species of one guild tend to interact mainly with generalists of the opposite guild. ...
Context 3
... there is a nucleus of highly interacting species of both guilds (i.e. generalists interacting with generalists; region A in Figure 3) with two 'tails' of specialists interacting with general- ists, one of specialist plants interacting with generalist flower visitors (region B in Figure 3) and the other of specialist flower visitor in-Sección especial teracting with generalist plants (region C in Figure 3). The regional nested pattern provides additional resilience to climate change because it implies that, regionally, the specialist spe- cies are linked to generalist (and thus more persistent) species. ...
