If you have a black cherry loaded with spindle-shaped leaf galls, keep your eyes peeled for the omnivorous caterpillar that feeds on them, the cherry gall azure (Celastrina serotina). #lepidoptera #galls #prunus #butterflies #lycaenidae #entomology #insects https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/82888035

A muscular tree ant, Podomyrma adelaidae, tends to a Lycaenid caterpillar. These caterpillars secrete substances that the ants find attractive, and the ants in turn provide protection from parasites. Poochera, South Australia. #insects #ants #Podomyrma #Lycaenidae

Welcher Bläuling könnte das sein? Der Falter zeigte nicht seine Flügeloberseiten, die eher wenig blau erschienen. Die Blüten der Erdbeerminze interessierten ihn sehr.
Nebenbei: Was saugt an unseren Lippenblütlern und anderen Pflanzen im Garten, so dass sie diese weißen, braun werdenden Läsionen (Flecken auf den Blättern) bekommen?

CW: Ants on a caterpillar
Asian Weaver Ants tending a Lycaenid caterpillar (Tailless Line Blue perhaps)
This is the best I could do with the MP-E. These ladies don't appreciate visitors and it was a breezy day.
I will have to try to find more of these with a wider lens. Any suggestions on good cheap wide angle macro for R mounts?

A Formica francoeuri field ant worker tending to the larva of a Great Copper butterfly (Lycaena xanthoides).
The caterpillar produces secretions attractive to ants, and in turn the ants protect the caterpillar from predators and parasites. San Diego County, California.

Juniper hairstreak (Callophrys gryneus). Per one source, this species' odd choice of a conifer as a host might be because its ancestral species ate mistletoes, a dicot parasite that is often found attacking junipers. Then over evolutionary time a mutant popped up that could eat the conifer host, too, followed by further specialization and eventual speciation. Interesting theory, which I've probably butchered. #lycaenidae #butterfly #lepidoptera #insect #entomology #nature #madras #oregon #speciation
