Microcosmos\Ladybug, Plant Louse, Carpenter Ants [01/13] - 082.jpg (1/1) (Video Capture)


A ladybug eats about 400 plant lice every day.
Unlike ladybugs, ants protect these plant lice.
This is the carpenter ant.
Upon seeing the ladybug out to kill the plant lice,
this carpenter ant tries desperately to chase off
the ladybug much bigger in size.
Why is the carpenter ant defending the plant louse?
The feces excreted by the louse is sweet-tasting.
The ant is protecting the plant louse for its
sweet juice. The sweet juice flows out if the ant
taps the plant louse with its antenna.

무당벌레가 하루에 진디기(plant louse) 400마리를 잡아먹는다니 놀랍다. 요즘 딸기나 방울토마토 농장에서 무당벌레를 이용한 천적농업 현장을 직접 체험한 적이 있었는데 이 정보를 보니 이해가 가는군...
