Meat ant during territorial disputes to locate them. These alarm signals are created by oscillating the body along the longitudinal axis, which are mostly released when an ant encounters a nest mate. "Cyclotorna monocentra" moths feed on meat ant broods. The larvae of these moths are parasites to leafhoppers and will move to meat ant colonies to complete their development, where they will proceed to consume the brood; the females lay many eggs near ant trails which are close to the leafhoppers tended by ants. Other observations show that the "Iphierga macarista" larvae are scavengers in meat ant nests, while "Sphallomorpha" beetles
Correct name orthographical variants. The zoological equivalent of "correct name" is "valid name". Different taxonomic placements may well lead to different correct names. For example, the earliest name for the fastest growing tree in the world is "Adenanthera falcataria" L. The "L." stands for "Linnaeus" who first validly published the name. "Adenanthera falcataria" is thus one of the correct names for this plant. There are other correct names, based on different taxonomic treatments. The four names "Adenanthera falcataria", "Albizia falcataria", "Paraserianthes falcataria" and "Falcataria moluccana" are each correct, given that the plant is placed in these four genera. Which is the 'right'
