Parasitic wasps avoid ant-protected hemipteran hosts via detection of ant cuticular hydrocarbons by Mouratidis, Angelos, Vacas, Sandra, Herrero-Schell, Julieta, Navarro-Llopis, Vicente, Marcel, Dicke, Tena, Alejandro

“…Here, we tested whether parasitic wasps detect the previous presence of ants attending colonies of phloem feeders. Behavioural assays demonstrate thatwasps left colonies previously attended by ants more frequently than control colonies. …”

Competition between honeydew producers in an ant-hemipteran interaction may enhance biological control of an invasive pest by Tena, Alejandro, Hoddle, C. D., Hoddle, Mark S.

“…Consequently, the mutualism between L. humile and D. citri was affected by the presence of other honeydew-producing species, and the percentage of D. citri colonies tended by L. humile. The number of ants per D. citri colony also decreased as the number of other honeydew producers increased. …”
