Do well-integrated species of an inquiline community have a lower brood predation tendency? A test using red wood ant myrmecophiles
BACKGROUND: A host infected with multiple parasitic species provides a unique system to test evolutionary and ecological hypotheses. Different parasitic species associated with a single host are expected to occupy different niches. This niche specialization can evolve from intraguild competition amo...
