Journal of Zoology, Volume 328, Issue 3, Page 234-247, March 2026.In our recent study, we examined whether ants in the Brazilian Cerrado follow the “grain‐size hypothesis,” which proposes that larger ants should have proportionally longer legs to move efficiently across different environments. We used Ectatomma permagnum, a common predatory ant in the Cerrado, measuring hundreds of individuals collected from various ...

Novel Worker‐Like Behavior Observed in Gynes of the Social Parasite Tetramorium microgyna
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.Our article reports, to our knowledge, the first observations of inquiline gynes performing worker tasks for their host colony. We dissected these gynes to establish that they were all unmated. We hypothesize that nest excavation by social parasites represents an artifact of a non‐parasitic past.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To investigate macroevolutionary and biogeographic patterns of chromosome number variation in ants (Formicidae), and to test whether chromosomal diversity is taxonomically structured, associated with species richness, varies with latitude, and accumulates over evolutionary time. Location Global.

Ant Diversity and Stratification in an Amazonian Rainforest
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.We examined the three strata of an Amazonian rainforest (e.g., the ground and leaf litter, understory and canopy) using only two sampling techniques and analyzed their functional traits. We identified 494 ant species from 10 subfamilies and 77 genera over ≈3.0 ha, showing that they are species rich and abundant, particularly at ground level.
