The First Workers of the Ant Camponotus obscuripes Are a Different Allometric Morph with Relatively Long Antennae to Communicate with Other Larger Colony Members

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
The first workers produced by an ant queen with a claustral founding mode are much smaller than the workers after the second generation and are thus called “nanitics.” These nanitics shoulder the initial fate of the colony and thus may be different morphometric morph from the other workers in mature colony to optimize the survival of their own colony ...

Biodiversity of Insecta in Amazonia: Updating the geographic records of social wasps (Vespidae: Polistinae) in Acre and Rondônia States, Brazil

Sociobiology, 2020
The Acre and Rondônia states in Brazil are part of Western Amazon rainforest in Brazil, an area harboring high biodiversity and high degree of endemisms Nevertheless, there are few studies on diversity of social wasps occurring in both states. This study

Multi‐method approach to assessing the floral‐visiting insect assemblage of rare, ambophilous plant Baccharis vanessae in Southern California

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
In this study, we compare the accuracy of two different methods of monitoring to assess the insect assemblage of Encinitas Baccharis (Baccharis vanessae): focal observations and video recordings from camera traps. The insect vectors identified were as expected given B. vanessae pollination syndrome.

Exploring the Potential of Perennial Nectar‐Producing Wild Plants for Pellet Combustion

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 8, Issue 6, June 2024.
Diversifying agricultural systems can foster biodiversity. For example, incorporating perennial, nectar‐rich wild plants into biogas cropping systems promotes biodiversity conservation while maintaining energy production. When left standing over the winter, wild plants provide a broader range of ecosystem services and a higher energy yield via pellet ...
