A study has revealed that Moths are vital to pollination in the Himalayan ecosystem of northeast India.
The study establishes 91 species of moths as potential pollinators of 21 plant families in Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh in the northeastern Himalayas.
In the present study about 65% moths (91 species) carried sufficient quantities of pollen grains to be considered as potential pollinators.
Geometridae and Erebidae are the most important moth families for pollen transportation in the Himalayan region.
The majority of pollination-related research has focused on diurnal pollinators as bees and butterflies.
