Formicidae

open access: yes, 2013
Phylogeny of Formicidae and position of Ponerinae Bayesian analysis of the combined data set (ALL_DATA) yielded a phylogeny that is broadly congruent with the results of Moreau et al. (2006) and Brady et al. (2006) for subfamily-level relationships within Formicidae (Fig.

Edges as ecological filters: Asymmetrical orientation‐specific arthropod activity across forest boundaries

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
Moderate retention forestry creates structurally sharp forest edges that act as ecological filters, shaping orientation‐specific activity of ground‐dwelling arthropods. Using drift‐fence pitfall traps, we show that activity aligned with ecotones is more frequent than activity across forest–clearcut boundaries, particularly among detritivores.

Life-history constraints in inaccurate Batesian myrmecomorphic spiders (Araneae: Corinnidae, Gnaphosidae)

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2011
Accurate Batesian mimicry is known to impose constraints on some traits of the mimic, such as foraging or reproductive behaviour. It is not known whether life-history traits of inaccurate Batesian mimics are constrained as well.

Behavioral, Ecological, and Morphological Data Suggest a Close Relationship Between the Ant Colobopsis truncata and the Gall Wasp Aphelonyx cerricola

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Aphelonyx cerricola and the different stages that make this gall colonizable by ants. ABSTRACT Wasps of the family Cynipidae are known to induce galls of a species‐specific morphology, which during senescence provide a refuge for secondary insect fauna, especially ants.

Un método rápido y efectivo para preparar hormigas para microscopía electrónica de barrido

open access: yesIntropica, 2022
Independientemente de la aplicación de técnicas de microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB), la preparación adecuada del material biológico a analizar es de suma importancia.

Evaluation of responses of different ant species (Formicidae) to the scavenger deterrent factor associated with the entomopathogenic nematode-bacterium complex

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2018
According to previous observations, it was hypothesized that the feeding behavior of some ant species would be deterred by a scavenger deterrent factor (SDF), whereas for other species it would not.

Balancing risk and opportunity: Nasute termite responses to predator and competitor chemical cues

open access: yesEcological Entomology, EarlyView.
Nasutitermes corniger discriminates between heterospecific chemical cues during foraging, showing non‐random resource selection based on predator and competitor information. Predator chemical cues consistently reduce food resource selection, indicating avoidance driven by perceived predation risk rather than direct encounters.

Not simply red: Colouration of red wood ant Formica rufa (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) is polymorphic, modular and size-dependent

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Entomology, 2017
Insects produce pigment and structural colours mainly for camouflage, signaling, physical protection or temperature regulation, and colour patterns can provide information about individual quality.
