Abstract:
Spillover of honey bee viruses have posed a significant threat to pollination services, triggering substantial effort in determining the host range of the viruses as an attempt to understand the transmission dynamics. Previous studies have reported infection of honey bee viruses in ants, raising the concern of ants serving as a reservoir host. Most of these studies, however, are restricted to a single, local ant population. We assessed the status (geographical distribution/prevalence/viral replication) and phylogenetic relationships of honey bee viruses in ants across the Asia–Pacific region,

Abstract:
We tested, under field and laboratory conditions, whether the neotropical ant Ectatomma ruidum Roger can learn several associations between temporal and spatial changes in the daily pattern of food availability. Honey was shuffled between two or three feeding sites following a fixed daily schedule. Foragers learnt to associate particular sites with the specific times at which food was available, individually marked ants being observed on the correct sites at the correct times. Some ants anticipated the time of food delivery by approximately 30 min, and it was not necessary for them to be rewar

Abstract:
Animals may develop mutualistic associations with other species, whereby prey offer resources or services in exchange for protection from predators. Alternatively, prey may offer resources or services directly to their would-be predators in exchange for their lives. The latter may be the case of hemipterans that engage in mutualistic interactions with ants by offering a honeydew reward. We test the extent to which a honeydew offering versus partner recognition may play a role as proximate mechanisms deterring ants from predating upon their hemipteran partners. We showed that, when presented wi

Abstract:
Emerging infectious diseases are often the products of host shifts, where a pathogen jumps from its original host to a novel species. Viruses in particular cross species barriers frequently. Acute bee paralysis virus (ABPV) and deformed wing virus (DWV) are viruses described in honey bees (Apis mellifera) with broad host ranges. Ants scavenging on dead honey bees may get infected with these viruses via foodborne transmission. However, the role of black garden ants, Lasius niger and Lasius platythorax, as alternative hosts of ABPV and DWV is not known and potential impacts of these viruses have

Abstract:
This study examines the impact of disturbance on the food preferences and dominance of an ant community in a temperate ecosystem in Mexico. The study focused on 2 types of vegetation: native oak forest and induced grassland (disturbed vegetation). Observations were conducted to record the food elements carried by ants to their nests. These data were analyzed using x2 tests. Tuna and honey baits were placed near the nests to record the presence of ants in 5-minute periods. We used a binomial model to determine whether the probability of finding an ant foraging at the baits was affected by veget

Notable examples include Carebara spp. from Africa, Atta spp. and Liometopum sp. from Latin America, Formica rufa from Europe, and Oecophylla spp. from Asia. In addition to being consumed directly, ants are used as flavouring agents and incorporated into a variety of culinary recipes. Humans also harvest cereals and honey gathered by ants.

Abstract:
During winter, foraging activity of ants is considered low in temperate regions. Winter activity of ground-dwelling ants was investigated using bait traps and quadrat sampling in an urban area of Fukuoka City, western Japan. Six study sites were grouped into two categories: 4 open land types and 2 forest types. A total of 18 ant species were recorded between the end of January and beginning of March. The foraging activity of ants was generally low, except during relatively warm periods when the surface ground temperature was above 6℃–7℃ or soil temperature was above 4℃–5℃. Tetramorium tsushima

Abstract From the human perspective, no other group of insects contains so many beneficial species as the order Hymenoptera. The majority of hymenopterans have larval stages that are carnivorous on other insects and numerous species are vital in controlling the populations of pest insects. Among the non carnivorous members of the order, bees constitute the single most important group of plant pollinators. One species of bee, the honey-bee, is the most prevalent domesticated insect and provides us with honey, wax, and other products. On the other hand, the order Hymenoptera also contains some v

Abstract:
Academic requirements for an insect society to be considered a superorganism vary broadly with authors and among sociobiologists. The two conditions that emerge as the most important are the lack of reproductive competition among nestmates and the state of social evolution where workers within colonies are at or beyond the “point of no return”—workers have lost the ability to live and reproduce independently. The search for reproductive competition within highly social colonies of ants and bees is a large academic research enterprise filling the contents of countless journals and books. Howeve

Abstract The existence of completely, or almost completely, sterile workers, as seen in honey-bees, hornets, ants, termites, and soldier-producing aphids, however, seems to be inexplicable without kin-selection. Workers which cannot leave any progeny (including male eggs), such as the soldiers of termites and aphids, are unable to gain any fitness from mutualism with unrelated colony members. Even for workers which can reproduce after the death of queens, the probability of succeeding the queen is almost zero if the colony size is more than 1000.

Abstract With their fat and furry appearance, their slow, meandering flight amongst flowers and their docile behaviour, it is easy to dismiss bumblebees as charming but dim. Examination of a nest might confirm this opinion; it is, in appearance, a ramshackle affair compared to that of the honeybee. The pupal cells, honey pots and larvae are haphazardly arranged. Housekeeping is poor—bees often defecate in and close to the nest, and the nest is often overrun with parasites and commensals. For these reasons, and because of the difficulties involved in findings bumblebee nests, researchers were s

The disease is broadly broken down into two types based on factors that include age, acuteness of onset, underlying glucose-handling deficit, and therapy. Type 1 diabetes usually manifests acutely in the young, secondary to some underlying insult (possibly infectious) to the islet cells of the pancreas, resulting in an absolute lack of insulin. Type 2 diabetes is more frequently associated with maturity, obesity, and gradually increasing blood glucose concentrati

Abstract:
The Argentine ant (Linepithema humile) is an invasive species first identified in New Zealand in 1990. It is an aggressive tramp species that can form very large ‘super colonies’ extending over vast areas and has been reported to rob honey and predate honey bees in hives. This pilot study sought to establish, from a circulated survey of beekeepers, which ant species were present in their hives and what awareness the beekeepers had of the potential impact of Argentine ants. In addition, a simple method of quantifying the effects of the Argentine ant on brood abundance was trialled in the field.
