"About 90% of flowering plants rely on animals to transfer their pollen and
optimise reproduction, making pollination one of nature’s most important
processes.
Bees are usually the first insects to come to mind when people think of
pollinators. But many other insects – including beetles, flies, moths and
butterflies – also visit flowers to feed on nectar and pollen.
In doing so, they can play an essential role in pollinating plants.
Let’s take a closer look at some of nature’s unsung insect pollinators."
