Reaching new heights: Arboreal ant diversity in a North American temperate forest ecosystem
Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 1, Page 95-106, January 2025.In the first systematic survey of ant diversity in North American temperate forest canopies, only 12% of species were strictly arboreal, and ant diversity was greater on the forest floor. We compared arboreal baiting to hand‐collecting in the canopy and found that the methods capture different assemblages of arboreally active ants, such that they are ...

Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. (Araneae, Dysderidae): A Unique Case of Parthenogenesis in Spiders
Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.We studied the parthenogenetic lineages of the spider Dysdera hungarica (Araneae: Dysderidae). Based on our data, we consider them to constitute a separate taxon, Dysdera parthenogenetica sp. nov. Morphologically, the new species differs mainly by slightly reduced female copulatory organs.

Reduction in mutualistic ant aggressive behavior upon sugar supplementation
Biotropica, Volume 56, Issue 6, November 2024.We measured the effects of sugar supplementation on ant protective behavior in the ant‐plant mutualism between Triplaris americana and Pseudomyrmex dendroicus. We tested four hypotheses: three which predict ants will attack intruding herbivores more often (“deficit”, “fuel for foraging”, “predictable rewards”) when an alternative sugar source is ...
