Representation of ant genera as hosts of obligately myrmecophilous lycaenid caterpillars, in relation to their frequency as visitors of facultative myrmecophiles. Each dot represents one ant genus. An OLS regression line is fitted into the data cloud for visual clarity. Ant genera below the regression line are under-represented, while those above the regression line are over-represented.
