Herbivoría de Atta cephalotes (Hymenoptera: Myrmicinae) sobre tres sustratos vegetales

open access: yes, 2008
Un estudio reciente sugiere una significativa reducción de la herbivoría de la hormiga arriera, Atta cephalotes, en plantaciones de arboloco (Montanoa quadrangularis (Asteraceae)) asociadas y abonadas con follaje verde de botón de oro (Tithonia diversifolia (Asteraceae)). Estas observaciones plantean un efecto disuasivo de esta planta sobre el forrajeo

Genetic characterization of Atta cephalotes ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) in Gorgona Island, Colombia

open access: yes, 2019
The genetic variation between island and mainland populations of the leaf-cutter ant Atta cephalotes have been poorly studied, despite its importance to understand their local migration, regional structure, and the distribution of one of the most abundant species in the neotropics. Objective: To analyze the genetic variation of an insular population of

Epiphyll deterrence to the leafcutter ant Atta cephalotes

Oecologia, 1991
Epiphyll growth on leaves of the grapefruit Citrus paradisi and the understory cyclanth Cyclanthus bipartitus repelled the fungus-growing, leafcutter ant Atta cephalotes from harvesting leaves of these tropical plants. Experimental removal of epiphylls from leaves resulted in 2-3 times more herbivore damage by leafcutter ants as compared to matched ...

Traffic Dynamics of the Leaf‐Cutting Ant,Atta cephalotes

The American Naturalist, 2002
Colonies of Atta cephalotes (Myrmicinae: Formicidae) construct cleared paths between their nest and the vegetation sources at which they harvest leaf tissue. Here, we employ ideas from traffic engineering to study streams of laden and unladen ants on these paths.

Chemistry of metapleural gland secretions of three attine ants,Atta sexdens rubropilosa, Atta cephalotes, andAcromyrmex octospinosus (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1996
The chemical composition of the secretions of the metapleural glands of workers and soldiers of twoAtta species,Atta sexdens rubropilosa andA. cephalotes, and workers ofAcromyrmex octospinosus, has been studied. As indicated by infrared spectrometry and confirmed by the ninhydrin test, the secretions contain chiefly proteins.

Vibrational communication between hitchhikers and foragers in leaf-cutting ants (Atta cephalotes)

Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 1995
Abstract In a foraging column of the leaf-cutting ant Atta cephalotes, minim workers (the smallest worker subcaste) “hitchhike” on leaf fragments carried by larger workers. It has been demonstrated that they defend leaf carriers against parasitic phorid flies. The present study examines the cues used by the potential hitchhikers to locate leaf carriers.
