Termite Inquilinism: proximate mechanisms mediating coexistence
… the context of host nest invasion by inquilines from two approaches: mechanical and physiological. The results show correlations between the ontogeny of hosts and the positioning of their nests with the presence of inquilines, reinforcing the diversity of mechanisms mediating this …

Wasps (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) associated with galls in seed-capsules of Eucalyptus camaldulensis (Myrtaceae) in South Africa : species composition, trophic relationships and effects
… insects, e.g. parasitoids, predators and inquilines. Chapter 2 deals with the geographical distribution of the seed capsule galls of E. camaldulensis in South Africa, and with the hymenopteran species that were reared from the samples collected from various parts of the country and during …

Parallel and Nonparallel Patterns of Genetic Co-Differentiation: Evidence for Host Associated Differentiation Among Trophic Levels of the Oak Gall Wasp System
Populations of phytophagous insects whose life cycles are intimately related to their host plants can express host-associated differentiation (HAD) in the form of genetic divergence and/or RI isolation across alternative host plants. In this work, we ask if HAD cascades to higher trophic levels in …
