Experimental design. Increasing pollinator richness up to nine species and three functional groups (FGs) (social bees (A), solitary bees (B) and hoverflies (C)), including all single-species ‘communities’, were used in a substitutive design. Three-species communities contained one or three FGs. Communities with three species from three FGs did not overlap.
