Winner, Ecology and Environmental Science category. Waiting in the Shallows by Nico de Bruyn.

Runner up, Ecology and Environmental Science category. Invincible ants by Thomas Endlein. Pitcher plants are carnivorous, drawing nutrients from trapped and digested insects. The species shown here (Nepenthes bicalcarata) secretes sweet nectar on the rim and fang-like structures, which are very slippery for most insects except for one specialised ant (Camponotus schmitzii). The ants live in the curled hollow tendrils of the plant and manage to climb in and out of the pitcher without any difficulties to steal a bit of nectar, as shown here.

Winner, Micro-imaging category. Olive oil drop family hanging together by Herve Elettro. (Photo by Herve Elettro/PA Wire/Royal Society Publishing Photography Competition 2017)
