Taxonomic revision of the Neotropical Myrmicinae ant genus Blepharidatta Wheeler
We revise the taxonomy of the exclusively Neotropical Myrmicinae ant genus Blepharidatta (Attini), redescribing the known species (B. brasiliensis and B. conops), and describing two new species, B. delabiei sp. n. (Brazil: Bahia) and B. fernandezi sp. n. (Colombia: Amazonas). We also describe worker sting apparatuses, larvae, males, and ergatoid gynes

Aphids associated with shrubs, herbaceous plants and crops in the Maltese Archipelago (Hemiptera, Aphidoidea) [PDF]
A survey of the aphids associated with Maltese shrubs, herbaceous plants and crops was carried out. Sixty six aphid species were recorded from more than 90 species of host plants.

Evolution of the North American seed‐harvester ant genus Veromessor (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)
Phylogenomics resolves evolutionary relationships among Veromessor seed‐harvesting ants across arid western North America. Ecological and morphological traits evolved rapidly and repeatedly in response to habitat. Genomic and morphological species delimitations are broadly congruent despite polymorphisms in colour and colony founding.

Diversity and mosaic structure of ant (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) community in traditional cocoa agroforestry systems in southern Cameroon [PDF]
In cocoa agrosforestry systems, ants are the major arthropod component of the canopy. Since dominant ant species are usually active predators of insects. Ant community may contribute to protect cocoa against insect pests, and especially from cocoa mirids.

Evolution of thorax architecture in ant castes highlights trade-off between flight and ground behaviors [PDF]
The concerted evolution of morphological and behavioral specializations has compelling examples in ant castes. Unique to ants is a marked divergence between winged queens and wingless workers, but morphological specializations for behaviors on the ground

Contribution to the myrmecofauna (Formicidae, Hymenoptera) of Mt. Kopaonik (Serbia) [PDF]
The myrmecofauna of Serbia is still insufficiently investigated. In the past ants were not a challenge for the entomologists of Serbia, only a few of which paid attention to ants and registered some ant species among other insect species.
