So richtig fängt das Insekten-Frühjahr für mich erst an, wenn die Feld-Sandlaufkäfer (Cicindela campestris) wieder auf der Jagd sind.

I recently finished "An Affair with Africa" by Alzada Kistner and am now absolutely fascinated by the beetle species that hang out in ant colonies, only appearing above ground when their hosts go out on raiding forays or when the nest is relocating. Any recs for a book or article about them? Ideally with photographs. #ants #beetles #myrmecophiles #coleoptera #staphylinidae #entomology #africa
