  6. Acorn ants, Temnothorax curvispinosus, in an old acorn in Illinois.

    They need an acorn in a particular stage of decay, usually a year old and already hollowed out. If you're looking for acorn ants, you won't find them in the fresh ones. #ants #insects #temnothorax

  8. RE: mastodon.social/@sflorg/115724

    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.
