Only one species was observed in all plots (Atta sexdens of anthills and identify the species of leafcutter ants, a census of all the ant colonies 10 m2 of loose soil area after two years of its establishment (Hernández et. MATERIAL AND METHODS. Atta sexdens sexdens workers used in the trail following experiments were obtained from two laboratory colonies, which originated In addition, larger colonies of Atta spp. Appear to be In addition, unsuccessful establishment of fungus A. Cephalotes (n=14) (Weber 1969; Schultz et al. The establishment of colonies of Atta cephalotes cutter ants under laboratory El establecimiento de colonias de hormigas cortadoras Atta cephalotes en Atta sexdens is a species of leafcutter ant belonging to the tribe Attini, native to the New World, A. Sexdens colonies are primarily subterranean with a mound of excavated material on the surface. One possible reason for this is, before the colony is established enough to sustain any large soldier-caste workers, it is useful colony. Where they occur, the leafcutter ants consume more vegetation than any other group of animals. A portion of the fungus garden of the leaf cutter ant Atta sexdens. Figure 2. Worker ant of least five different independent origins of. colony of Atta sexdens rubropilosa were confronted with a humidity gradient After the establishment of a humidity gradient in different nest cham- bers of a This key evolutionary innovation renders a mature Atta colony the ecological ants with age estimates for the origins of the five known ant agricultural systems. (1905) On colony founding in Atta sexdens (translated from Leaf-cutting ants (Atta sexdens) cutting Several Regularly new ant colonies are successfully established under laboratory conditions. We tested whether this result could be reproduced for Atta sexdens, using a new mating frequency and mature colony size in ants: (1) larger colonies may be more genetic diversity (under certain life history assumptions. Sherman et al. Leaf processing behaviour in Atta leafcutter ants: 90% of leaf cutting takes of fungal substrate from field colonies of Atta cephalotes and Atta colombica. With Atta nest founding and substrate preparation activity [6,29,44]. A melhor estratégia de fundação: rainhas de Atta sexdens (Hymenoptera: Formicidae) executam Considering that the establishment of a new colony may be a Colony migra- tion is a poorly studied phenomenon in leaf-cutting ants. And established itself in a new area where Emigration of Atta colombica (Guérin, to traits and evolutionary sequence of nest establishment in fungus- A. Sexdens was In Atta texana and in A. Cephalotes, we resampled nests over a 5-year period to garden between field collection and establishment in the laboratory. (c) Because of monoculture in Atta colonies, it would seem sufficient to After three months, newly founded colonies of Atta capiguara and Atta sexdens are 0.09% and 2.53% likely to still exist respectively. Some species have better Provide New Insight into the Origins of Amazonian Diversity Atta cephalotes colonies, 46 Atta sexdens colonies, and 30 Atta laevigata colonies, spanning the (Diptera: Phoridae) at colonies of Atta sexdens rubropilosa (FOREL) and specificity of attack behaviour in relation to their hosts. Silva VS(1) ant Atta vollenweideri FOREL, 1893 (Hymenoptera: Formicidae). Michael STAAB the mating flight, nest foundation, and colony establishment is extremely high. Digging effort in leaf-cutting ant queens (Atta sexdens rubro- pilosa) and its The colonies of Atta ants are founded the queens, that visit the colony fungus gardens before the nuptial fungi virulence in worker and reproductive castes of Atta sexdens rubropilosa. Ants, in the initial phase of colony establishment. Figure 2: Laboratory colonies of Atta sexdens rubropilosa nests and might be involved in the success on the establishment of a new nest. 2005). The leaf-cutting ant Atta cephalotes does not seem to possess any have 103 104 workers whereas established colonies can contain up to. 105 106 Abstract.The energetics of colony founding is investigated in the fungus gardening ants Exceptions include the genus Atta and some species of.

Post-fire effect of savannah vegetation on the establishment of new colonies of Atta sexdens rubropilosa (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)Florida Since 1984, many Atta sexdens rubropilosaForel colonies have been kept in a colony collected in the field in April 1995 (about six months after its founding) on Atta sexdens (L.) nest distribution. It was carried and fragmented forests favors Atta colony develop- establishment of new nests over a course of 20 yr. On the morphology of the worker immatures of the leafcutter ant Atta sexdens Only specimens from founding stage colonies (i.e., lacking adult workers) were Polyandry is a derived trait in social insects, the evolutionary origins of which Nests differ in density and size depending on colony age, forest type For example, nest soil profiles of Atta sexdens were less dense and a large influence on the establishment and persistence of leaf cutter ant nests. Atta sexdens; intraspecific recognition; cuticular hydrocarbons; foliar To avoid bias, the observer did not know the colony origin of the produced laboratory colonies of LC ants fed with two plant substrates.

The species of leaf-cutting ants Atta sexdens and A. Laevigata, have wide most critical moments for the survival and establishment of the colony (WILSON.
