| Description | we studied the mimetic accuracy of individuals of three myrmecomorphic species, Liophrurillus flavitarsis, Phrurolithus festivus, and Micaria sociabilis, and their association with ant models to find evidence in support of hypotheses suggested to explain the maintenance of inaccurate mimicry. |
