Host‐Specific Myrmecophily and Myrmecophagy in the Tropical Coccinellid Diomus thoracicus in French Guiana

Biotropica, 2010
ABSTRACTA variety of arthropods, particularly insects, have developed myrmecophilous interactions with ants to gain access to resources and/or for protection. Among these myrmecophiles, only a few examples have been documented in the Coccinellidae, most of them involving species able to feed on ant‐tended Hemiptera.

Basal hatching by Maculinea butterfly eggs: a consequence of advanced myrmecophily?

Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1991
Larvae of Maculinea alcon and M. rebeli are unique among Holarctic Lycaenidae in hatching through the base of the eggshell and emerging on the opposite side of the leaf to the egg. This occurs because the exposed upper surfaces of their eggs have exceptionally thick shells. Other species of Maculinea have normal or unusually thin-shelled eggs.

Lycaenid butterflies and plants: is myrmecophily associated with particular hostplant preferences?

Ethology Ecology & Evolution, 1995
Life-history data on 1050 phytophagous species of the butterfly subfamily Lycaeninae were used to examine previously suggested correlations between hostplant use and myrmecophily. Myrmecophily is an ancestral character of the Lycaeninae, which has been reduced independently in a number of lineages (secondary myrmecoxenes). Members of the order Fabales (
