Summary
editDescriptionFly Orchid (Ophrys insectifera) - geograph.org.uk - 1330567.jpg |
English: Fly Orchid (Ophrys insectifera). See 1330564. A close up of an individual flower, showing the strong insect resemblance which gives the plant its name. In this case, the mimicry serves a purpose: a combination of its appearance and pheromones produced by the plant dupes male digger wasps of the genus Argogorytes into thinking that the flowers are females, and the resulting attempt at copulation results in the pollen being collected - if followed by a visit to another plant, this may result in pollination. |
