Flowers And Their Unbidden Guests is a book written by Anton Kerner and first published in 1878. The book is a comprehensive study of the relationship between flowers and the insects that visit them. Kerner was a renowned Austrian botanist and entomologist who spent many years studying the interactions between flowers and insects.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of this relationship. Kerner describes the different types of flowers and the insects that are attracted to them, as well as the various ways in which flowers have evolved to attract these visitors. He also explores the role that insects play in pollination and how this process helps flowers to reproduce.Throughout the book, Kerner provides detailed descriptions of the various insects that visit flowers, including bees, butterflies, moths, and beetles. He also discusses the different strategies that flowers use to attract these visitors, such as producing nectar, using bright colors and patterns, and emitting fragrances.In addition to his scientific observations, Kerner also includes a number of illustrations and photographs to help readers better understand the plants and insects he is studying.
