Detailed Solution

Majority of flowering plants use a range of animals as pollinating agents. Bees, butterflies, flies,
beetles, wasps, ants, moths, birds (sunbirds and humming birds) and bats are the common pollinating agents. Among the animals, insects, particularly bees are the dominant biotic pollinating agents. Even larger animals such as some primates (lemurs), arboreal (tree-dwelling) rodents, or even reptiles (gecko lizard and garden lizard) have also been reported as
pollinators in some species. Often flowers of animal pollinated plants are specifically adapted for a particular species of animal.
