Description

This dataset presents the frequency on visitations by the insects to the anthesising oil palm inflorescences in an oil palm plantation in Terengganu, Peninsular Malaysia. Although insects are known as the pollinators to the oil palm trees, only the one that visits both the staminate and pistillate inflorescences however, showed the potential to act as pollinator. The visitation frequencies of each insect visitor are useful to assess the effectiveness of these insects as pollinators.
