Abstract
The present study was carried out to compare the performance of pollinators through modular approach. The Apis cerana, Apis dorsata, Apis florea, Xylocopa tenuiscapa, Lucilia sericata, Musca domestica and Haematobia irritans were major pollinators included during the course of study. The performance of pollinators varied from species to species at different hours in a day as well as floral incidence. Highest performance of all the pollinators was observed during 0601 to 0700 h of the day. Of the pollinators, A. cerana proved to be the most efficient pollinator of guava followed by A. dorsata. Highest performance of A. cerana coincided with the peak of anthesis. The performance of all Apis spp. after 1100 h was reduced to nought
