Ant Diversity Declines with Increasing Elevation along the Udzungwa Mountains, Tanzania
Diversity, 2022 Biodiversity patterns along elevational gradients are generally characterised by monotonic decreases or mid-elevational peaks in species richness, while elevational zones may be characterised by distinct assemblages, or higher zones may be subsets of ...

The ant fauna (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) of the Mordovia State Nature Reserve, Russia
Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2021 Ants form an important insect group in many terrestrial ecosystems. The research of ant species diversity is a relevant line of ecological and faunistic studies to completely reveal the biodiversity. Particular attention is given to Protected Areas where

Ant Species Diversity in the Central and Northern Parts of the Western Sichuan Plateau in China
Diversity, 2023 Understanding how species richness changes along elevational gradients has attracted increasing attention from many researchers. The relationships between species richness and elevations were characterized by monotonic decreases or mid-elevational peaks.

Ant genomics: strength and diversity in numbers [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, 2010 A recent workshop held at the Arizona State University Center for Social Dynamics and Complexity gathered over 50 prominent researchers from around the globe to discuss the development of genomic resources for several ant species. Ants play crucial roles in many ecological niches and the sequencing of several ant genomes promises to elucidate topics ...

Partitioning the impact of environment and spatial structure on alpha and beta components of taxonomic, functional, and phylogenetic diversity in European ants [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 We analyze the relative contribution of environmental and spatial variables to the alpha and beta components of taxonomic (TD), phylogenetic (PD), and functional (FD) diversity in ant communities found along different climate and anthropogenic ...
