Close Up Image Of A Wasp And A Butterfly On The Same Flower Stem

Close up image of a yellow and black striped stinging wasp and a delicate red and black butterfly sharing the same flower stem. The majority of wasp species are solitary, with each adult female living and breeding independently. Wasps play many ecological roles. Some are predators or pollinators, whether to feed themselves or to provision their nests. Adult butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight. Butterflies are often polymorphic, and many species make use of camouflage, mimicry and aposematism to evade their predators.
