RE: https://mastodon.social/@sflorg/115724952387955417
In a study different #behaviors in #anthosts and #antparasites between populations of each of them were discovered being related i.a. to #temperature and humidity and thus on the effects of #climaticchange, based on these species: the "slave-making ant" #Temnothorax americanus, and its host, the ant Temnothorax longispinosus (#Myrmicinae).
In that context I would be interested in the climate change effects on non-ant parasites and commensals, such as #phoreticmites.

The #duskyant, #Formica #fusca (#Myrmicinae), is a ground-dwelling #ant with #earthnests in warmer habitats, widespread in #CentralEurope and extending across the western #Palearctic. The nests are #polygynous (severely active #queens). Like many ant species, this one also carries #phoretic organisms on its body, e.g., #mites of the #Histiostomatidae. #biodiversity #insects #Hymenoptera
