why is my trunk bark peeling off

Can anyone tell me why some of these trees (zelkova and elm) have their bark peeling off so badly? They are older more mature trees - is this normal? The only thing i have noticed is alot of ants and previous problem this spring with what i believe was black spot leaf fungus. Is it possible that either of those have caused this? Its been pretty hot and dry - could that be it?
