The predatory behavior of ants: an impressive panoply of morphological adaptations
This review focuses on predation in ants, showing the wide diversity of cases from solitary foraging to group hunting tactics, as well as the evolution of mandible shape frequently adapted to capture specific prey. Although most ants are generalist feeders, finding their sugary substances directly on plants or indirectly via sap‐sucking insects, some ...

Intraguild Interactions Drive the Dynamics of a Complex Community of Globally Invasive Ant Species
ABSTRACT Invasive species adversely affect biodiversity, but little is known about how ecologically similar invaders interact. Such intraguild interactions may drive non‐native community dynamics and their broader impacts on biodiversity. In native systems, intraguild interactions are widespread strong eco‐evolutionary pressures; understanding whether ...
