Formicidae [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Contribution of a DNA barcode to an assessment of the specificity of ant taxa (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) on Corsica

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2020
We used the COI marker, the most popular DNA barcode for the animal kingdom, to assess the taxonomic status of Corsican populations of eight groups of species of ants that occur both on Corsica and the European mainland. (i) In two groups, we detected no

Ants as shell collectors: notes on land snail shells found around ant nests [PDF]

open access: yesMalacologica Bohemoslovaca, 2009
We investigated the shell collecting activities of harvester ants (Messor spp.) in semi-arid grasslands and shrubs in Turkey. We found eleven species of snails in the area, two of them were not collected by ants.

All sugars ain't sweet: selection of particular mono-, di- and trisaccharides by western carpenter ants and European fire ants

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Ants select sustained carbohydrate resources, such as aphid honeydew, based on many factors including sugar type, volume and concentration. We tested the hypotheses (H1–H3) that western carpenter ants, Camponotus modoc, seek honeydew excretions from ...

Ants of the genus Protalaridris (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), more than just deadly mandibles

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2018
The ants of the genus Protalaridris are revised based upon their morphology. Seven species are recognized; the type species (P. armata Brown, 1980) and six species described as new: P. aculeata Lattke & Alpert, sp. n., P.

Distribution of Finnish mound-building Formica ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) based on using a citizen science approach

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2021
The distance from southern Italy to Denmark is about the same as the length of Finland from south to north. A study of the biogeography of insects, such as ants, would take a lot of effort and funding to sample the whole area.

Impact of the invasive ant Linepithema humile on native ant assemblages on the western slopes of Table Mountain and implications for ant-butterfly associations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The Argentine Ant, Linepithema humile (Hymenoptera: Formicidae), is one of the world's most successful invasive species and invades undisturbed Fynbos habitats in South Africa, displacing native arthropod species and affecting interspecific associations.
