Host-specific is what a butterfly that pollinates one type of flower is called.

Specifically, butterflies enjoy feeding on the nectar of a plant's flowers. They move pollen from one plant to another as they consume the nectar of different plants. Some butterflies work from a wider range of plants deemed nectar-worthy than others and therefore labeled host-plants.
