Fig. 3 Comparative anatomy of Acromyrmex charruanus (a) and A. heyeri (b) femalemouthparts, depicting cardo (Ca), galea (Ga), glossa (Gl), labial palp (LP), maxillary palp (MP), postmentum (PM), and stipes (St). The palp formula of both parasite and host is 4:2 (number of segments of maxillary:labial palps), representing the plesiomorphic condition in fungus-growing ants. The scale bars represent 0.2 mm in both figures.
