The caterpillars of some butterfly species in the family Lycaenidae associate with ants in mostly mutualistic relationships, where ants receive a sugary reward from the caterpillars, and in return the caterpillars get protection against predators. This video describes the relationship between ants and the Miami blue, a critically endangered butterfly found only in the Florida Keys.

Great video, I am surprised by how active these caterpillars are compared to the imperial blue also tended by ants in Australia.

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing! There is a species of Red Ant in Europe that look after the Blue Butterfly Caterpillars as well! Have you ever seen Ants and Honey Bees collecting Honey Dew from Aphids?
