Colorado Study: Ordinary Species Of Pollinators And Flowering Plants Could Have Extraordinary Implications

A species of bee fly sits on common yarrow flowers. We often hear about efforts to support and conserve rare species, like the spotted owl or Joshua trees. But new findings argue that some very ordinary plants and animals deserve our attention, too. Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder monitored plants and pollinator species in a Colorado mountain meadow for more than five years. They found a complex web of interactions, with so-called “generalist” species at the center – that is, species that interact with a bunch of other kinds of species. That includes insects like flies and flowering plants like the common yarrow, which has a little platform of white flowers.

Common plants and pollinators act as anchors for ecosystems

Credit: Julian Resasco The next time you go for a hike, take an extra moment to appreciate the seemingly ordinary life all around you. A house fly, humble yarrow weed and other generalist plants and pollinators play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and may also serve as buffers against some impacts of climate change, finds new University of Colorado Boulder research. The findings, published this month in Ecology, provide valuable insights for prioritizing the conservation of species that contribute to the strength of ecological communities. A lot of times, conservation efforts are geared toward things that are rare. But oftentimes, species that are common are also in decline and could go extinct, and that could have really big repercussions for maintaining biodiversity, said Julian Resasco, lead author on the study and assistant professor of ecology.
