Only winged male and female ants generally mate through nuptial flight during the reproductive season. In the ants of Cardiocondyla, the males show wing dimorphism and their reproductive strategies differ depending on the differences in wing morpholo

Gynandromorphy, or the development of organisms with a combination of male and female morphological features, is common in Hymenoptera. The underlying mechanism is likely associated with the sex-determination system, and studying this phenomenon shou

Queens and female sexuals of the Southeast Asian ant Cardiocondyla sp. engage in aggressive interactions. By biting and violently antennating female sexuals, queens appear to prevent them from shedding their wings and presumably also from starting to

A new type of ant male dimorphism, consisting of wingless (ergatoid) and short-winged (brachypterous) males, was found in a species of the “Cardiocondyla kagutsuchi”- complex from Malaysia. The ergatoid males show the typical morphological and be

Both wingless worker-like queens, and dealated queens of the ponerine ant, Hypoponera nubatama, engage in egg-laying activities. Corresponding to the differentiation in female reproductives, males are also dimorphic, winged and ergatoid. In Japan, wi

The diploid chromosome number in the female formicine ant, Lasius sakagamii, is 30, while the haploid number in normal males is 15. Six of the 30 studied colonies (20%), however, contained many diploid males. Although the body size of the diploid mal

The two types of males in the ant genus Cardiocondyla differ remarkably in morphology and behavior. Ergatoid males are wingless fighters whose spermatogenesis continues throughout their entire adult lives and which therefore have an “unlimited” s

We studied the reproductive behavior of the ponerine antHypoponera bondroiti from Okinawa, Japan. This species has dimorphic wingless ergatoid males (major and minor), dimorphic reproductive females (alate queens and wingless reproductive intercastes
