Ants communicate by odorous chemicals, which others imitate:[/i] > > https://phys.org/news/2017-08-dangerous-game-highwayman-beetle.html > > DAVID’s comment: [i]I cannot imagine how this beetle evolved. It had to have mutations to create the chemicals it uses to confuse ants. Ant scent is chemically specific. It is much easier to understand insects which simply cover themselves with ant scent.[/i] > > Another stunning example of how organisms work out different ways of feeding and protecting themselves.
