Life-history evolution in ants: the case of Cardiocondyla.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 15 Mar 2017

Heinze Jürgen

Abstract excerpt

Ants are important components of most terrestrial habitats, and a better knowledge of the diversity of their life histories is essential to understand many aspects of ecosystem functioning. The myrmicine genus Cardiocondyla shows a wide range of colony structures, reproductive behaviours, queen and male lifespans, and habitat use. Reconstructing the evolutionary pathways of individual and social phenotypic traits...
