relationship An example of a mutualistic relationship in the Daintree rainforest is the relationship between the Ulysses butterfly and the pink flowered doughwood. This relationship is mutualistic because the pink flowered doughwood needs a specific insect pollinator‚ the Ulysses butterfly‚ and the Ulysses butterfly relies on the pink flowered doughwood for the nectar on which it survives‚ making them both benefit and rely on each other.
