New calculations indicate that 90% of flowering plant species are animal-pollinated.

The services of animal pollinators that deliver compatible pollen to receptive stigmas are essential for the reproduction of many flowering plants [1,2].The maintenance of plant-pollinator interactions,therefore,is the basis for the function and sustainability of healthy ecosystems.For this reason, there has been widespread concern over the past two decades about the global decline in pollinators and the effects of this loss on pollination services for both wild plants and crops [3,4].
