The high diversity within a guild of Pseudacteon Coquillet (Diptera: Phoridae) parasitoid flies hosted by the red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), may be based on several niche axes, including host size specialization, host location cues, climatic responses, and tolerances. The recently described species, Pseudacteon obtusitus Plowes, Folgarait, and Gilbert (Diptera: Phoridae), is one of the smallest species in this group (with a thorax width of only 0.3 mm), and appears to locate ant hosts on foraging trails as well as at nest disturbances. Here we examine the ecology, phenology, and development of this parasitoid at sites in Corrientes, Argentina. Pseudacteon obtusitus has 2 seasons of peak abundance,...
