      <image:caption>Insects cluster on a Hanging Lobster Claw plant (Heliconia rostrata) in the Peruvian Amazon. There are over 194 species of heliconia found throughout the world, with most of them native to Central and South America. Each of these resplendent species acts as its own island ecosystem in an intricate food web, providing food and shelter for an array of organisms including hummingbirds, spiders, frogs, beetles, flies, cicadas, aphids, planthoppers, wasps, bees, ants, butterflies, moths, snails, mites and parasite species.</image:caption>
