Uncovering species boundaries in the Neotropical ant complexEctatomma ruidum(Ectatomminae) under the presence of nuclear mitochondrial paralogues [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2016 Nuclear mitochondrial (mt) paralogues (numts) are non-functional fragments of mtDNA integrated into the nuclear genome that can overestimate the number of species in analyses based on mtDNA sequences. As numts have relatively slow mutation rates, they can pass undetected by conventional procedures such as inspecting for internal stop codons, indels or ...

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2013 Among social parasites, workerless inquilines entirely depend on their host for survival and reproduction. They are usually close phylogenetic relatives of their host, which raises important questions about their evolutionary history and mechanisms of ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.We validated ant‐specific COI metabarcoding primers using in silico, in vitro and in situ analyses, identifying assays that improve ant detection from mock communities, spike‐in tests and soil eDNA. The recommended assays reduce reliance on taxonomic expertise and enable scalable, high‐throughput ant biomonitoring for land‐management applications ...

Behavior of Ectatomma brunneum (Formicidae: Ectatomminae) Preying on Dipterans in Field Conditions
, 2009 Behavioral traits of foraging activity in social insects require complex interactions between workers and the environmental conditions. The behavioral repertoire of foraging strategies depends on biotic factors, such as prey type, competition and natural

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To investigate macroevolutionary and biogeographic patterns of chromosome number variation in ants (Formicidae), and to test whether chromosomal diversity is taxonomically structured, associated with species richness, varies with latitude, and accumulates over evolutionary time. Location Global.
