Hyphae of the fungal symbiont, Trimmatostroma sp., cultivated by the plant ant Allomerus decemarticulatus to build galleries on their host plant, Hirtella physophora. The fungus also acts as a trophic mediator improving nutrient uptake by the host plant in this tripartite ant‐plant‐fungus mutualism. (Photo: Mario X. Ruiz‐González, Valencia, Spain)
