Abstract
⺠Sexually deceptive orchids are ideal candidates for studies of sympatric speciation. ⺠Traits like the pollinator-attracting scent are associated with reproductive success. ⺠Minor changes in floral scent might be the driving force for speciation events. ⺠Pollinators act as isolation barriers towards other sympatrically occurring species. ⺠Hybridization occurs because of similar odour bouquets of co-occurring species.
