Monomad: Thyreus the Plant Pollinator

IMG_20250810_175310.jpg

Thyreus, also known as the cuckoo bee, is an insect with a distinctive black color and bright blue patterns. It is actually classified as a member of the bee family, but many people mistakenly think it belongs to the fly family. It also has two transparent, brownish wings, large eyes, and a round, plump body.

Because Thyreus is a member of the bee family, this bee continues to function as a pollinator. The function of pollination is to promote plant reproduction and maintain plant diversity, ensuring that various plants and vegetation can survive and thrive over time.

It's a curious fact that a plant needs a bee, not its own species, to survive and thrive.
This is where mutualism occurs.
