Dear enemy phenomenon in the leaf-cutting ant Acromyrmex lobicornis: behavioral and genetic evidence

Behavioral Ecology, 2010
The defense of territory through aggressive behavior is well known in animals. However, some territorial animal species respond less aggressively to intrusions by their neighbors than to intrusions by nonneighbors to minimize the costs of continuous fights, a phenomenon termed the dear enemy phenomenon (DEP). Although several studies show the existence

Waste Management in the Leaf-Cutting Ant Acromyrmex lobicornis: Division of Labour, Aggressive Behaviour, and Location of External Refuse Dumps

Journal of Insect Behavior, 2007
In leaf-cutting ants, the handling of waste materials from the fungus culture increases the risk of infection. Consequently, ants should manage their waste in a way that minimizes the spread of diseases. We investigated whether in Acromyrmex lobicornis, waste-worker ants (a) also perform roles in foraging or mound maintenance, (b) are morphologically ...

Leaf-cutting ant nests in temperate environments: mounds, mound damages and nest mortality rate in Acromyrmex lobicornis

Studies on Neotropical Fauna and Environment, 2000
The mounds of ant nests have been characterized as structures that facilitate the colonization of habitats subject to extreme temperatures. My objective was to investigate the importance of the mound of Acromyrmex lobicornis (Formicidae, Attini) in this process.

A note on Szelenyiopria pampeana (Loiácono) n. comb., parasitoid wasps (Hymenoptera: Diapriidae) attacking the fungus growing ant, Acromyrmex lobicornis Emery (Hymenoptera: Formicidae: Attini) in La Pampa, Argentina

Zootaxa, 2009
Diapriids are predominately known as parasitoids of fly pupae. According to Huggert and Masner (1983), representatives of three subfamilies of ants (Myrmicinae, Formicinae and Dorylinae) are the known hosts of myrmecophilic diapriinae wasps (Diapriidae: Diapriinae); within the Myrmicinae, the genera known to be associated with diapriines are Solenopsis
