A Moveable Feast: Black tree ants (Polyrachis dive: Formicidae: Formiciinae: Cam-ponotini) attend a mature larva (about 2.2 cm long) of the hairstreak butterfly Remelana jangala mudra (Fruhstorfer) (Lycaenidae) in Pak Sai O, Sai Kung, Hong Kong. Above: Ants caress the larva with tarsae and antennae; note the slit-like honey dew gland on the posterior dorsal surface of the larva. Below: One ant feeds on the sugary honey dew released by the eversible gland of the stimulated larva. Photographed September 1990 with a Nikon F3, micro-Nikkor 50-mm lens (Mitsubishi colour film, flash: 1/60 sec f32).
