Monoculture of leafcutter ant gardens. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Leafcutter ants depend on the cultivation of symbiotic Attamyces fungi for food, which are thought to be grown by the ants in single-strain, clonal monoculture throughout the hundreds to thousands of gardens within a leafcutter nest.

Bimodal alarm signals modulate responses to monomodal alarm signals in Camponotus modoc carpenter ants. [PDF]
Insect SciDistressed Camponotus modoc carpenter ants emit alarm pheromone and produce vibratory alarm signals. Presented as a monomodal signal, the pheromone attracts nestmates, whereas vibratory signals cause nestmates to “freeze” or to run fast. Sensing a bimodal signal complex, nestmates are less attracted to pheromone but stay “frozen” longer which seems ...

Occurrence of Atta cephalotes (L.) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Alagoas, Northeastern Brazil [PDF]
Neotropical Entomology, 2005 Atta cephalotes (L.) presents a wide distribution in the Neotropical region. In Brazil, this species is disjunctly distributed in the Amazon region and in the states of Maranhao, Pernambuco and southern Bahia, all of which belong to Northeast Region. Here we report on a survey of Atta colonies in 42 remnants of the Atlantic rainforest in Alagoas and ...

Light pulses flashed to Atta cephalotes face for control in fruit trees
Ingeniería Agrícola y Biosistemas, 2023 Introduction: Worker ants follow paths to fed their nest and their eyes require to adapt themselves under light intensity variations. Objective: This proposal aims to study the effect of different illumination techniques in a trail and force ants to change of trajectory before feeding from a tree.

Dietary diversity, sociality, and the evolution of ant gustation
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 Ants have remarkably diverse diets and extraordinary species richness, making them an excellent model system to study the evolution of taste. In this entirely eusocial clade, food choice and the mechanisms that regulate feeding have both individual and ...
