Soil Temperatures Predict Smaller Niche Shifts Than Air Temperatures in Introduced Ant Species
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 4, April 2025.ABSTRACT Aim Introduced species can establish in climates outside of their native niche and undergo ‘niche shifts’. However, studies of niche shifts generally rely on above‐ground climate data, neglecting the potential buffering effect of ground‐level or soil climates. Location Global. Time Period Present. Major Taxa Studied Formicidae.

Ecological Applications, Volume 34, Issue 7, October 2024.Abstract Fire is a powerful tool for conservation management at a landscape scale, but a rigorous evidence base is often lacking for understanding its impacts on biodiversity in different biomes. Fire‐induced changes to habitat openness have been identified as an underlying driver of responses of faunal communities, including for ants.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2024.Two Canarian ant species, Camponotus guanchus Santschi, 1908 (a, c) and Crematogaster alluaudi Emery, 1893 (b, d), occur in two color‐morphs, one with a reddish (a, b) and the other with a blackish (c, d) mesosoma. Color morphs are geographically non‐randomly distributed but Ca.
