Los hongos entomopatógenos son ampliamente conocidos por parasitar y manipular el comportamiento de varios órdenes de artrópodos. En este estudio registramos el parasitismo que involucra al hongo entomopatógeno Ophiocordyceps camponoti-renggeri y hormigas hospederas de la especie Camponotus renggeri en un relicto de Mata Atlántica en el bioma Caatinga, además de caracterizar los aspectos ambientales y ecológicos de la interacción. Encontramos 210 hormigas obreras infectadas, fijadas predominantemente en los márgenes de la cara abaxial de las hojas de la vegetación local. La mayoría de las hormigas usaban hojas de filotaxia simples para adherirse y matar, cuyo tamaño variaba ampliamente. Las hormigas parasitadas morían aproximadamente a 1,5 m del suelo. Estos resultados sugieren que Ophiocordyceps camponoti-renggeri tiene una alta virulencia y que los cambios de comportamiento inducidos en sus hospedadores favorecen su fitness.Â
