Fungus pockets are any of various convergently evolved inoculum-retention and -cultivation organs in a wide range of insect taxa. They are generally[1] [2] divided into mycangia (or "mycetangia")[3] and infrabuccal pockets.
Fungus pockets are found in ambrosia beetles,[4] [3] bark beetles, termites and attine ants.[1] [2]
