		Mutualisms can be lifelong interactions involving close physical and biochemical contact (known as symbiosis) such as those between trees and mycorrhizal fungi; they can also be briefer, non-symbiotic interactions, such as those between flowering plants and pollinators.

		As in pollination mutualisms, the degree of specificity is important in understanding how influential such mutualism might be to driving the dynamics of interacting plant and animal populations.
		In summary, this mutualism reduces the probability of local extinction due to adult dispersal, increases the probability of individual survival and reproduction across periods when natural perturbations of the environment reduce many other species of insect in the same habitat.
