Ant Diversity and Stratification in an Amazonian Rainforest. [PDF]
Ecol EvolABSTRACT This study focuses on species occupying the three strata of an Amazonian rainforest: the ground and leaf litter, the understorey and the canopy. We employed only two sampling techniques: Winkler extraction for ground‐dwelling ants and direct observations for understorey and canopy species on large branches cut off by a ...

A Systematic Review of Global Drivers of Ant Elevational Diversity.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Ant diversity shows a variety of patterns across elevational gradients, though the patterns and drivers have not been evaluated comprehensively. In this systematic review and reanalysis, we use published data on ant elevational diversity to detail the ...
