Combined effects of the landscape and crop management on ant communities
Agricultural and Forest Entomology, EarlyView.At small spatial scales, agricultural management acts as a stronger ecological filter than landscape context, significantly shaping ant community composition. Species richness and frequency did not differ among treatments, indicating the predominance of generalist species.

European Journal of Entomology, 2013 Most species of ants inhabiting the temperate zone overwinter underground, whereas those of the genus Temnothorax remain in nests aboveground. I studied the cost of aboveground overwintering. Workers of Temnothorax crassispinus survived in higher numbers

Larval character evolution in Holometabola (Insecta)
Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract Larvae, a novel type of immature stage, are a crucial innovation of the Holometabola. Larval features therefore provide key evidence for reconstructing evolutionary transformations in this megadiverse group. Here we present the first formal reconstruction of larval character evolution, using maximum parsimony and Bayesian ancestral‐state ...

European Journal of Entomology, 2003 During a survey of 23 wet heathland sites in Flanders (north Belgium) in 1999 and 2000, using both manual nest searching and pitfall traps as sampling techniques, we found 28 ant species.

Taxonomy of the Crematogaster degeeri-species-assemblage in the Malagasy region (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) [PDF]
, 2013 We revise the species-level taxonomy of the Crematogaster (Crematogaster) degeerispecies-assemblage, a group of related ants occuring in Madagascar and the wider Malagasy region, and further provide an identification key to all species-groups of the ...

Assessing Predator Activity on Clay Models in Response to Common Insecticides in Turfgrass
Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.Insecticides exhibited clear but time‐dependent effects on predatory activity, as reflected by impression types and density on clay models in turfgrass. Certain insecticides (bifenthrin, and in some cases acephate + imidacloprid, imidacloprid, chlorantraniliprole, and tetraniliprole) reduced total impressions shortly after application and again later ...

Ecological Entomology, EarlyView.Landscape structure did not affect overall ant species richness, but forest cover influenced the abundance of some functional components of ant assemblages across Atlantic Forest fragments. Seed removal declined with increasing seed size and was positively associated with community dominance but negatively associated with community‐weighted mean ...
