Description:

Description: English: The native bee had visited a number of Stylidium carlquistii flowers before visiting this one. The trigger on the Stylidium has gone off hitting the bee on the back of its thorax and leaving a dusting of pollen. When it visits another stylidium, the bee gets hit again thus pollinating the flowers. Date: 19 October 2012. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/63479603@N00/8102822124/. Author: jeans_Photos.
