1. CHIROPTEROPHILY
Chiropterophily is pollination of plants by bats. Bat pollination is most common in tropical and desert areas that have many night-blooming plants. Just like bees and birds that pollinate, nectar-consuming bats have evolved ways to find and harvest the sweet liquid.
2. ORITHPHILY
Ornithophily or bird pollination is the pollination of flowering plants by birds. This coevolutionary association is derived from insect pollination and is particularly well developed in some parts of the world, especially in the tropics and on some island chains.

Chiropterophily:
pollination carried out by bats is called chiropterophily. bats can transport pollens over long distance, sometimes several kilometres.
