Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Leaves and immature fruits of Tococa sp. (perhaps tococa guianensis). The contorted leafy structures at the base of the leaves are domatia, spectialized structures for ant housing. Ants protect the leaves from herbivory by other insects and provide mineral food to the plant.
Français : Feuilles et fruits verts de Tococa sp. (peut-être tococa guianensis). Les structures gaufrées à la base des feuilles sont des domaties, des structures spécialisées pour héberger des fourmis. Les fourmis protègent la plante contre les ravageurs et lui apportent une nourriture minérale.
