  • Rhamnaceae allied to fetid honeys in Argentine. Melissopalynological analysis of six honeysamples, commercially rejected for its fetid odour, was performed. These honeys were produced from Espinaland Pampeana Phytogeographical Provinces. The main nectar sources that characterized monofloral honeysbelong to the following families: Rhamnaceae (Discaria americana, Scutia buxifolia) and Calyceraceae (Acicarphatribuloides) along with pollen of S. buxifolia as secondary. According with the results of the present study itseems that the odour has its origin in the Rhamnaceae flowers.
