Marie-Pierre and Adria wrote this giant review about trophallaxis, in what contexts it occurs, who does it and the big ‘why,’ why did it evolve. Please enjoy it, complete with the lovely figures (thanks Emile)!
There’s a lovely blog post interview with Marie-Pierre about the paper that Myrmecological News did.
Along with the paper we also put out a database that we’ll update about which species do and don’t engage in trophallaxis. Please write to us if you have any species to contribute!
There is this fantastic project that has been going on for the past few years: The Encyclopedia of Social Insects. The contributors are excellent and there are so many great topics. It is easy to get lost in all of this knowledge.
Adria’s chapter on Trophallaxis is now online and can be found here.
