Anthropogenic disturbances, including land use change and exotic species, can alter the diversity and dynamics of ant communities. To examine foraging behavior in an urbanized habitat in northern California, we surveyed the presence of 9 ant species

Much of our understanding of mutualism is derived from pairwise obligate interactions between specialized participants. These observations may not adequately inform conservation efforts for facultative mutualist species, especially for areas in which

Ants (Formicidae: Hymenoptera) are important components of forest ecosystems and can be affected by fuel reduction forest management practices. We assessed the impact of repeated applications of fuel reduction treatments on abundance and diversity of

Background Ant-plant mutualistic networks tend to have a nested structure that contributes to their stability, but the ecological factors that give rise to this structure are not fully understood. Here, we evaluate whether ant abundance and dominance

Climate change is one of the top causes of biodiversity loss. Organisms will experience many pressures associated with climate change, one of the most obvious being increased temperature. It is therefore important to understand how animals will react
