The red wood antFormica polyctena builds a mound of dead vegetable material which is accumulated into a sort of loose thatch. Some taxonomic relatives ofFormica nest beneath rocks and the two nest types are closely related in a physical sense. Possibly this similarity is more than just coincidental. The hypothesis is suggested that the mound ofFormica polyctena has evolved as a simulation of a rock.
红木蚁（Formica polyctena）会用死亡的植物材料堆积起一个蚁丘，这些材料堆积成一种松散的茅草状。Formica的一些分类学上的近亲在岩石下筑巢，从物理意义上讲，这两种巢穴类型密切相关。这种相似性可能不仅仅是巧合。有人提出这样的假说，即Formica polyctena的蚁丘是作为对岩石的一种模拟而进化出来的。
