More about the book
The unique relationship between Sphingidae moths and flowers reveals an intriguing pollination strategy. Moths, attracted to nectar-rich blooms, provide a distinct advantage by transporting pollen over long distances, enhancing genetic diversity in plants. Unlike other pollinators, moths do not consume or clean off the pollen they collect, ensuring that more pollen is available for transfer to subsequent flowers. This dynamic highlights the evolutionary benefits of moths as effective pollinators compared to bees and other insects.
