A species discovered in 2008 was found to alter the morphology of its ant host, apparently so as to make the ant resemble fruits leading to their predation by birds. The ants forage on bird droppings and are infected by the nematodes.[1] Some species infect the invasive ant Solenopsis invicta making them of interest in applied biological control.[2] References1. ^{{cite journal|journal=Systematic Parasitology|title=Myrmeconema neotropicum n. g., n. sp., a new tetradonematid nematode parasitising South American populations of Cephalotes atratus (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), with the discovery of an apparent parasite-induced host morph| volume=69|issue=2|pages=145–153|year=2008|author1=Poinar, G |author2=Stephen P.
