Foraging strategies and dietary preferences of a high mountain ant. (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

Fernandez-Escudero I., Tinaut A.

Polish Journal of Ecology

1998

Vol. 46, no 1

23-31

The ant Proformica longiseta inhabits the dry zones of the Mediterranean high mountain. A generalist feeder, this species has a predilection for liquid food, and its solid diet changes over the active period according to the prey available. It forages alone without recruitment or cooperation. The abundance of repletes varies in parallel to the quantity of food collected, representing a solution for food shortage periods. The territories surrounding the nests are not clearly defined, but rather overlap with foraging areas of several ant nests.
