Ophrys orchid – The Happiest Orchid in the World!
August 29, 2013 by Sana Lane 1 comment
If you thought defrauding people by gaining their confidence was a trait of the humans, then let’s unveil you a plant that is an impeccable double-cross!
They belong to the genus Ophrys and come under the Ophrys insectifera type of species. Since they bear a strong resemblance to the bodies of bees, they are therefore referred to as “Bee Orchids.” These flowers mfemale bees to such an extent that male bees find it hard to decipher that they actually are flowers, as they look and even smell like female bees. The ardent males get allured by their beauty and smell and eventuallinto mating with these flowers. This sexual deception is a tactic to attract pollinators.

Researchers believe that they produce “bee sex pheromones”, chemicals that are released by female bees to attract male bees for mating. So this pheromone acts as a stimulator which calls for mating. This kind of hmating is known as “pseudocopulation.” The bees then inadvertently carry the pollen and transfer it to other flowers when they get seduced into “pseudocopulation” once again.

As much as their appearance seems to be happy, this orchid breaks all the ethical rules to actually stay happy. May be we can take some ideas from them, don’t you think?
