Phylogenomic analysis of 2524 ultraconserved‐element loci from 58 Messor harvester ant species helps in redefining taxonomic groups of the genus. Messor ants emerged in the Irano‐Indian area around 20 million years ago, rapidly dispersing to the Western Palaearctic and Northeastern Africa during the early Miocene.

Different Aspects of Dominance Are Not Equivalent When Testing for Trade‐Offs in Ant Communities
Dominance hierarchies are often invoked to explain the outcomes of competition across ecological communities. However, there are a number of difficulties associated with quantifying dominance, making it is challenging to ultimately link dominance to community structure and species coexistence. Here we provide evidence, both empirically and through meta‐

A zoogeographic model for the evolution of diversity and endemism in Madagascar
The delineation of zoogeographic regions is essential for understanding the evolution of biodiversity. Madagascar, characterized by high levels of endemism and habitat diversity, presents unique challenges and opportunities for such studies. Traditional global zoogeographic classifications, largely based on vertebrates, may overlook finer‐scale ...

Macroecology of parental care in arthropods: higher mortality risk leads to higher benefits of offspring protection in tropical climates [PDF]
The intensity of biotic interactions varies around the world, in such a way that mortality risk imposed by natural enemies is usually higher in the tropics.

Monitoreo de la reserva natural Paititi mediante el uso de grupos funcionales de hormigas (Hymenóptera: Formicidae), Buenos Aires, Argentina [PDF]
La utilización de hormigas en programas de monitoreo es muy escasa. La excepción es Australia, en donde éstas se han utilizado exitosamente durante años como indicadoras en la recuperación de sitios impactados por la industria minera principalmente.
