“…Akino and Yamaoka described hydrocarbons of L. niger from Japan, which are completely different from European ones, but this species is now considered as a different twin species named Lasius japonicus (Akino and Yamaoka 2005). L. niger cuticular profiles appear to be stable in various areas in France, and also in Germany (Dinter et al 2002), Belgium (A.L. unpublished) and Denmark (Dreier and D'Ettorre 2009).…”

“…To illustrate the temperature induced shift in chain length of the cuticular hydrocarbons in the 20°C and 30°C-type of E. barbatus, we plotted the cumulative distribution functions of the relative peak areas versus the increasing retention index (Dinter et al 2002;Hadley 1977;Toolson and Hadley 1977). For quantification of the similarities of different cuticular hydrocarbon patterns, we calculated the Nei's indices (I) for all species pairs (Gush et al 1985;Kaib et al 1991;Nowbahari et al 1990):…”

“…Adaptation of the intruder's cuticular hydrocarbons to the pattern of the host can be obtained in different ways: substances can be taken over by means of physical contact (e.g. Dinter et al 2002;Vander Meer et al 1989;Vander Meer and Wojcik 1982) or less frequently parasites produce the host specific pattern themselves (chemical mimicry according to Dettner and Liepert 1994;e.g. Howard et al 1980 in Trichopsenius frosti).…”

“…In contrast, larvae of other myrmecophiles, such as lycaenids and some carabid species, enter the colony by themselves so that the adult forms require protective mechanisms only for the short time of eclosion (Dinter et al 2002;Pierce et al 2002). Whereas it is well known how lycaenid caterpillars are adopted by ants (e.g.…”

“…Numerous guests of army ants, as well as larvae of the carabid Anthia (Termophilum) sexmaculata Fabricius 1787 follow chemical trails laid by their host (Dinter et al 2002;Wilson 1971), and Paussus favieri adults show this behaviour, too. In the laboratory, the beetles followed trails of the host ant Pheidole pallidula, but ignored trails of the non-host genera, suggesting that ant nest beetles are able to discriminate the trail pheromones of host from non-host ant The sequence of taxa and their nomenclature is based on Bolton (1995Bolton ( , 2003 for ants and Nagel (2003) and Lorenz (2005) for beetles.…”
