New Strains of Wolbachia Unveiling the Complexity of This Symbiotic Interaction in Solenopsis (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesMicrobiology Research, 2021
Bacteria of the genus Wolbachia are widely distributed in arthropods, particularly in ants; nevertheless, it is still little explored with the Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) methodology, especially in the genus Solenopsis, which includes species ...

Phylogenomic reconstruction reveals new insights into the evolution and biogeography of Atta leaf‐cutting ants (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

open access: yesSystematic Entomology, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 13-35, January 2022., 2022
We employ phylogenomic markers (UCEs) to reconstruct the most extensively sampled phylogeny to date for the ecologically dominant leaf‐cutting ant genus Atta, the major herbivore of the New World tropics. The ancestor of Atta arose 8.5 Ma in the North/Central America + NW South America range, and its descendant species rapidly radiated into Neotropical

Determinação de temperatura e umidade relativa no interior de colônias de insetos sociais para estudos bioecológicos.

open access: yesAnais da Sociedade Entomológica do Brasil, 1974
Com o objetivo de se determinar a temperatura e umidade relativa no interior de colônias de insetos sociais, desenvolveu-se o presente estudo no Departamento de Entomologia da ESALQ, em setembro de 1974. Para essas determinações foram utilizados pares termoelétricos acoplados a um potenciógrafo Honeywell. Trabalhou-se com as seguintes espécies ...
