A new species of Pseudochalcura (Hymenoptera, Eucharitidae), with a review of antennal morphology from a phylogenetic perspective

ZooKeys, 2009
Pseudochalcura alba Heraty & Heraty, sp. n. is described from Santiago del Estero and Catamarca provinces in northwestern Argentina. The male and female have long dorsal rami on all of the flagellomeres basal to the terminal segment, which is a ...

A Review of the Biology of Eucharitidae (Hymenoptera: Chalcidoidea) from Argentina

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
All the members of Eucharitidae are parasitoid of ants. Argentina has 14 genera and 41 species, but little is known about their biology. Herein are provided new data for host associations (host ant and/or host plant) of Galearia latreillei, Kapala spp., Latina rugosa, Orasema aenea, and Orasema sp.

Bacterial Infections across the Ants: Frequency and Prevalence of Wolbachia, Spiroplasma, and Asaia

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
Bacterial endosymbionts are common across insects, but we often lack a deeper knowledge of their prevalence across most organisms. Next‐generation sequencing approaches can characterize bacterial diversity associated with a host and at the same time facilitate the fast and simultaneous screening of infectious bacteria.

Community Structure of Leaf‐Litter Ants in a Neotropical Dry Forest: A Biogeographic Approach to Explain Betadiversity

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012
This paper describes habitat and geographic correlates of ant diversity in Serra da Bodoquena, a poorly surveyed region of central‐western Brazil. We discuss leaf‐litter ant diversity on a regional scale, with emphasis on the contribution of each of the processes that form the evolutionary basis of contemporary beta diversity.

Et latet et lucet: Discoveries from the Phyletisches Museum amber and copal collection in Jena, Germany [PDF]

Deutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift
As the only direct records of the history of evolution, it is critical to determine the geological source of biota-bearing fossils. Through the application of synchrotron-radiation micro-computed tomography (SR-µ-CT), Fourier-transformed infrared ...

Mean abundances (± standard error) of ant genera collected from pitfall traps at low and high elevations sites in the Greater Blue Mountains World Heritage Area.

, 2016
Superscript numbers 1, 2, 3 indicate the top three genera that differ between low and high elevation communities. The genera that contain seed-removalists (MYR) are indicated (Y = yes).
