Zelus annulosus : ウィキペディア英語版 | Zelus annulosus
''Zelus annulosus'' is an assassin bug found in South America. It frequently associates with ''Hirtella physophora'' (Chrysobalanaceae), a plant that houses colonies of plant-ants ''Allomerus decemarticulatus'' and provides the ants with nectar. Some species of ''Zelus'' gather sticky substances from certain plants to coat their legs; ''Z. annulosus'' does not engage in this behavior, instead secreting the substance. ''Z. annulosus'' apparently is able to avoid being attacked by the ants by walking primarily on the plant's trichomes, which shield the assassin bug from the ants, but still allow ''Z. annulosus'' to be protected by having the ants in the vicinity.〔 ==References==
