Abstract The problem of whether haplodiploidy is responsible for the frequent evolution of eusociality in the Hymenoptera remains unresolved. The little‐known “protected invasion hypothesis” posits that because a male will transmit a new allele for alloparental care to all his daughters under haplodiploidy, such an allele has a higher probability of ...

The ant abdomen: The skeletomuscular and soft tissue anatomy of Amblyopone australis workers (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 283, Issue 6, Page 693-770, June 2022., 2022
The ant abdomen is critically understudied, despite its functional, evolutionary, and systematic importance. Using physical dissection, scanning electron microscope, histology, and microcomputed tomography, we provide the first complete treatment of the skeletomusculature, exocrine glands, and other major organs of the abdomen.
