Form, function, and evolution of worker–worker social carrying in ants

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Social carrying is a widespread ant recruitment behavior in which one worker physically transports another, usually during nest relocation. Across 62 species, phylogenetic analyses suggest that it originated as a stereotypical, coordinated behavior, with carrying posture largely conserved within subfamilies. Its occurrence across colony sizes indicates

Social Exchange and Reciprocal Integration Between Migrants and Locals at Work

Human Resource Management Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Workplaces are pivotal “contact zones” where migrants and locals negotiate access to jobs, resources, and recognition, yet HRM research has rarely examined how everyday encounters generate integrated relationships at work. This conceptual paper introduces reciprocal integration as a workplace‐anchored social exchange process: the emergent ...

Does Rodent Management Impact the Distribution of Rattus rattus and Mastomys natalensis in Village Settings?

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Ecological differences between species may result in differential impacts of control measures. Our experimental study showed that intensive removal of rodents from houses (mostly Rattus rattus) resulted in increased use of houses by Mastomys natalensis, a species usually found outdoors. Our results suggest that M.
