Microdon myrmicae lives sympatrically with other myrmecophiles including Maculinea alcon, M. nausithous and M. teleius (in one location all four species cooccur).[3]DescriptionExternal imagesFor terms see Morphology of Diptera Wing length 6·75-8·25 mm. See references for determination [4] At present M.mutabilis is only reliably distinguished from M.myrmicae by features of the puparium. Two color morphs of the species are known: individuals of either sex can be predominately gold-haired or silver-haired. However, more males appear to be silver than gold, and the reverse is true for females, suggesting a complex genetic mechanism.[5] References1. ^{{cite journal | last = Speight | first = M.C.D. | year = 2011 | title = Species accounts of European Syrphidae (Diptera)| journal = Syrph the Net, the database of European Syrphidae | volume = 65 | pages = 285pp | url= http://www.diptera.info/downloads/StN_Species_Accounts_Glasgow_2011.pdf }} 2. ^Fauna Europaea 3. ^Simona Bonelli, Andrew Worgan, Sophie Everett and Karsten Schonrogge Host specificity in Microdon myrmicae, a sympatric social parasite to the Maculinea in moist grassland ecosystems in Studies on the Ecology and Conservation of Butterflies in Europe vol. 2, pp.69-71 [https://www.researchgate.net/publication/224817162_Host_specificity_in_Microdon_myrmicae_ a_sympatric_soicial_parasite_to_the_Maculinea_in_moist_grassland_ecosystems] 4. ^Van Veen, M.
