The Guests of Ants
How Myrmecophiles Interact with Their Hosts
Pulitzer Prize–winner Bert Hölldobler and behavioral ecologist Christina Kwapich reveal a universe of behavioral mechanisms whereby invaders known as myrmecophiles break into ant colonies. By decoding ants’ sophisticated communication systems, these invaders disguise themselves as friendly, suppress ant aggression, and feast on colony resources.
