The orchid bee gets its name because it feeds on orchid nectar and as such is of great importance in the pollination of orchids.

Also known as the jewel wasp, the female of this solitary wasp species paralyses a cockroach with its toxic sting before laying an egg inside it. When the larva emerges it feeds on the dying cockroach.
