Would a pheromone released by a red-ant species affect the behavior of a member of a black-ant colony?
It is possible for pheromones released by a red ant species to influence the behavior of a black ant colony member if the pheromones mimic or trigger similar responses in both ant species. However, the extent of the effect would depend on the specific pheromones involved, as ants usually respond most strongly to pheromones produced by members of their own species.
