Expert Answer
Pseudocopulation is when a male insect, such as a bee, wasp, or fly, tries to mate with a flower resembling the female insect of the same species.
In some orchids, male insects mistakenly identify the flower's patterns as the female species and try to mate with it, pollinating the flower.
