, 2012 The economic importance of the Formicidae ants in agriculture is mainly due to their interactions with honeydewproducing Hemipterans, which reduce the abundance of beneficial arthropods in the canopies, thus hindering the biological control of pests. Argentine ant Linepithema humile Mayr, 1868 and native ants of the genera Camponotus, Formica, Lasius ...

Pumping Venom: Valvilli Architecture in Diacamma (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) and Implications for Stinger Functionality [PDF]
Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 9, September 2026.The insect stinger is among the best‐known venom‐delivery structures, yet its valvilli—paired flaps within the valve chamber—remain poorly understood. Using micro‐CT, histology, serial block‐face SEM and CLSM in the ant Diacamma nr. indicum, we show that the valvilli are not uniformly flexible flaps but are materially differentiated structures with ...

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 Colobopsis ants are unique ants known for their phragmotic behavior. We have completed the mitochondrial genome of Colobopsis nipponica (Wheeler, W.M., 1928) as the first mitochondrial genome of the genus. The mitogenome is 17,431 bp long and 19.4% in GC
