Understanding the relationship between coral reef condition and recruitment potential is vital for development of effective management strategies that maintain cover biodiversity. Coral larvae (planulae) have been shown to use certain sensory cues orient towards settlement habitats (e.g. odour live crustose coralline algae - CCA). However, influence auditory on recruitment, any effect anthropogenic noise this process, remain largely unknown. Here, we determined protected (MPA), exploited...
While thousands of ant species are arboreal, very few able to chew and tunnel through living wood. Ants the genus Melissotarsus (subfamily Myrmicinae) inhabit systems excavated under bark trees, where they keep large numbers symbiotic armoured scale insects (family Diaspididae). Construction these tunnels by chewing healthy wood requires tremendous power, but adaptations that give abilities unclear. Here, we investigate morphology musculoskeletal system using histology, scanning electron...
Abstract Background Explanations for the ecological dominance of ants generally focus on benefits division labour and cooperation during foraging. However, principal innovation relative to their wasp ancestors was evolution a new phenotype: wingless worker caste optimized ground labour. Ant workers are famous ability lift carry heavy loads, but we know surprisingly little about morphological basis strength. Here examine consequences universal loss flight in ant skeletomuscular adaptations...
Food reserves and trophallaxis help insect colonies regulate brood development survive starvation events. Unlike wasps bees, ants do not store food in external structures within the nest. Therefore, an ant colony's ability to is greatly enhanced by of highly dimorphic workers soldiers that are able their bodies. Carebara perpusilla (subfamily Myrmicinae, Emery, 1895) has a subterranean lifestyle three castes: workers, with proportionally larger head gaster, large winged queens. Workers...
