X-ray computed tomography reveals that intraspecific competition promotes soldier differentiation in a one-piece nesting termite
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2017)
© 2017 The Netherlands Entomological Society Investment in soldier production in eusocial lineages involves a trade-off between maintenance costs and defense benefits. Termites are eusocial insects that live in colonies ...
Nest defense behavior against ant attacks in post-emergent colonies of wasp Mischocyttarus cerberus (Hymenoptera, Vespidae)
(Springer Heidelberg, 2008-09-01)
The primitive eusocial wasp Mischocyttarus cerberus forms colonies of independent foundation, without morphological differentiation among castes. Ants are natural enemies of the social wasps and defending the wasps' nests ...

Nest defense behavior against the attack of ants in colonies of pre-emergent Mischocyttarus cerberus (hymenoptera, vespidae)
(2007-07-16)
The study was carried out at the UNESP Rio Claro campus (SP), where biotests consisting of simulated ant attacks were performed in colonies of Mischocyttarus cerberus. The behaviors of the wasps were recorded with a ...
Colony defensive behavior by the social wasp Polybia (Trichothorax) sericea (Hymenoptera, Vespidae)
(California State University, 2007-01-01)
This work aimed at evaluating the aggressive response of Polybia sericea, incited by mechanical means, as well as collecting information on the biological and population parameters of this species in Caatinga environments. ...
