As far as I know, both types of flux mediating the electromagnetic phenomenon and related forces consist of coherent streams of virtual photons according to the known theory.

Besides the total non-zero curl of a magnetic dipole flux field $\nabla\times B\ne0$ compared to the zero curl of an electric monopole charge, electric flux field $\nabla\times E=0$, which could be also interpreted equal to a hypothetical existing non-zero divergence magnetic dipole flux field $\nabla\cdot B\ne0$ thus a zero total field curl $\nabla\times B=0$.

Is there elementary, ontologically and physically any other known difference between electric and magnetic flux lines of force?

  • $\begingroup$ A single electric charge (monopole) will always have zero curl flux lines. A single magnetic dipole charge will always have a total non-zero curl flux lines. So the difference in curl is caused by the nature of the source really, monopole electron charge -e ==> electric flux and dipole magnetic moment of electron (magnetic dipole charge) ==> magnetic flux. Otherwise IMO, the two flux types are the same phenomenon and mediate the same electromagnetic unified force. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ IMO, there is no separate electric or magnetic flux line. Both are constituted by stream of virtual photons. Therefore the electron from which the electromagnetic phenomenon originates, has a single unified electromagnetic flux field. Depending on the type of its interaction with other particles, its radiated flux is curled thus magnetic flux or not curled thus electric flux.
