This is not correct! Birds of the Phylloscopus-Group are active vistors of Lotus-Flowers! Even the worm looking friutrs of Lotus berthelotii are ditributed by these birds! Placed by [134.147.131.6] →ΣcoPhreek _Δ 16:33, 3 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ecophreek is correct regarding Phylloscopus birds as visitors to the flowers of Lotus berthelotii and the most recent research shows that in fact the plant is adequately pollinated by these birds, but doesn't set fruit as it is probably a single clonal genotype. I have edited the text accordingly and this section is now accurate. Speakingofcities (talk) 07:31, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The photograph

More possible correcting; the current photo on the article page is of a plant that is often found in cultivation, but usually then called L. maculatus BREITFELD. The one usually found as bertholetii has flowers that are more reddish, and finer leaves. Whether they are different species, or subspecies, I don't know. Imc 19:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
