This is an endosymbiosis example in which the ants tent the aphids and its eggs to later take honeydew from the healthy aphids they tend, this benefit both species since the ants get honeydew and the aphids are safe from predators like lacewings and hover flies.
Adaptable.
I don't know either the species of the ants nor the species of the aphids. Any suggestion would be helpful.
