In an ecosystem where most flowers are long and bell-shaped, it is most likely that there would be more long-beaked hummingbirds. This is because long-beaked hummingbirds would have an advantage when accessing the nectar in those flowers, allowing them to feed more efficiently and survive better. Therefore, the population composition would lean towards more long-beaked hummingbirds.
