The fig (Ficus) is absolutely dependent upon pollination by minute agaonid wasps for development of fertile seeds. In some species of the wasp genera Agaon, Allotriozoon, Blastophaga, Ceratosolen, Elisabethiella, Liporrhopalum, and Pleistodontes, the females possess concavities ("corbiculae") to carry pollen. The New World Tetrapus and some Old World Blastophaga lack pollen-carrying structures and may carry pollen dusted over the body or in the digestive tract.
无花果树绝对依赖微小的榕小蜂进行授粉才能发育出有活力的种子。在榕小蜂属的一些物种中，如 Agaon、Allotriozoon、Blastophaga、Ceratosolen、Elisabethiella、Liporrhopalum 和 Pleistodontes，雌性榕小蜂具有容纳花粉的凹腔（“corbiculae”）。新大陆 Tetrapus 和一些旧大陆 Blastophaga 缺乏携带花粉的结构，它们可能会携带散布在身体上或消化道中的花粉。
