When the insects disperse the Vortex ends.

Because the insects have short life spans and can more readily disperse and shift their ranges than plants, the scientists say, they respond more rapidly than vegetation to climatic change.

This honeydew contains millions of asexual spores (conidia), which insects disperse to other florets.

The witch's spell did not cover the blood that must have spilled, and insects and the sun and the wind had dispersed it completely.

With ants, they write, the insect may have been dispersing spores, or have turned to fungi growing in nests as a nearby food source.

Water, birds, insects, machinery, and animal feet disperse it, but contaminated seed is probably the most common dispersal method.

Another strategy is seen in the stinkhorns, a group of fungi with lively colors and putrid odor that attract insects to disperse their spores.
