    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Natural societies ofPlagiolepis pygmaea were collected at the end of the winter period. Usually, they were strongly polygynous (17 queens per society in average) All the wingless queens were inseminated and could lay eggs. The weight of these queens is correlated: - negatively with their number in the societies; - positively with the number of nurse workers; - positively with their ovary development. The queens' fecundity has been studied in monogynous condition by counting the number of eggs laid during 5 weeks at the end of the winter period. Several correlations were revealed: - a positive one between the queen's fecundity and their weight; - a positive one between the queen's fecundity and their aggregative power on their workers; - a negative one between the queen's fecundity and their number in their native society.
    Notes: Resume Les sociétés naturelles dePlagiolepis pygmaea récoltées à la fin de l'hivernage sont habituellement fortement polygynes (en moyenne 17 reines par société). Toutes les reines désailées sont inséminées et participent à la ponte. Ces reines présentent certaines particularités en relation avec les caractéristiques démographiques des sociétés; en particulier, leur poids montre une corrélation: - négative avec leur nombre dans la société; - positive avec le nombre d'ouvrières nourrices; - positive avec le développement de leurs ovaires. La fécondité des reines a été étudiée en condition expérimentale monogyne en dénombrant les œufs pondus pendant 5 semaines à la fin de l'hivernage. On met en évidence plusieurs corrélations: - positive entre la fécondité et le poids des reines; - positive entre la fécondité et le pouvoir agrégatif des reines sur leurs ouvrières; - négative entre la fécondité et le degré de polygynie de la société d'origine.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume La fourmi primitiveAneuretus simoni a été recherchée au Sri Lanka dans les forêts de Kandy, Matale, Peradeniya, Gilimale et Ratnapura. Des sociétés de l'espèce ont pu être trouvées dans les seules forêts humides de Gilimale. La répartition de cette fourmi semble localisée aux zones d'altitudes supérieures à 450 m recevant de 2 à 5 mètres d'eau par an. Au total, 33 sociétés ont pu être récoltées, dont plusieurs avec des reines. Les densités des sociétés étaient respectivement de 0.017, 0.023 et 0.033 soc/m2 dans les 3 sites étudiés. Nous avons dénombré chezA. simoni une moyenne de 65 ouvrières minor et une ou plusieurs reines par société. Les ouvrières major ne représentent que 2 à 3 % des effectifs. Les sexués apparaissent du milieu du mois de juillet au mois d'août. La société semble polycalique. Dans leur habitat habituel, les ouvrières sont omnivores. Elles consomment des petits insectes et des hydrates de carbone prélevés sur des fruits pourrissants. Un système de pistes de récoltes est utilisé dans l'exploitation de sources de nourriture importantes. Les ouvrières d'A. simoni évitent typiquement tout contact avec celles de fourmis sympatriques commePheidole, Paratrechina, Tetramorium, Odontomachus etMonomorium. En cas de rencontre avec des ouvrières étrangères de la même espèce, il en résulte des phénomènes d'agression. Ceci suggère que la reconnaissance des congénères d'une même société et peut être l'existence d'un comportement territorial intraspécifique semblent bien développés.
    Notes: Summary A search forAneuretus simoni was carried out in forested regions near Kandy, Matale, Peradeniya, Gilimale, Ratnapura, and Lagumba, Sri Lanka. Colonies were found only in the humid forests of the Gilimale area. The distribution ofA. simoni appears to be correlated with rainfall (200–500 cm/year) and geographic elevation (above 450 meters). A total of 33 queenright and queenless nests were collected. Nest density was 0.017, 0.023, and 0.033 colonies/m2, respectively, in three study plots. Aneuretus colonies contain on average more than one queen and approximately 65 minor workers. Major workers comprise only two to three percent of the colony population. Sexuals are found in nests from mid-July to August. Colonies appear to be polydomous. A. simoni workers observed in the field showed generalized foraging habits. They preyed upon small insects and collected carbohydrate from rotting fruit. Trail systems were used in exploitation of large food sources. A. simoni workers typically avoid contact with workers of sympatric ant genera such asPheidole, Paratrechina, Tetramorium, Odontomachus, andMonomorium. When alien conspecifics are encountered, aggression results, indicating that nestmate recognition and perhaps intraspecific territoriality is well developed.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume 1. La distribution des individus de groupes normaux deMyrmica rubra a été étudiée dans des nids artificiels formés d'une seule rangée de cellules. Une couche d'ouvrières recouvre les reines et le couvain, ménageant cependant une région périphérique où l'on ne trouve que des ouvrières dont le rôle est de défendre l'entrée et de préparer les proies pour la consommation. La région périphérique est particulièrement bien représentée, près de l'entrée. Lorsque le paquet d'œufs grossit, l'enveloppe d'ouvrières se dissocie et découvre les larves; lorsque ces dernières sont prêtes à se nymphoser, les ouvrières les ramènent vers le centre où se trouvent le couvain non alimenté et les reines. 2. La sociabilité des reines est très variable. Certaines restent seules la plupart du temps alors que d'autres sont rarement solitaires et se regroupent avec d'autres reines. Certaines des reines sociables peuvent être très attentives au choix de leurs compagnes alors que d'autres sont tout à fait indifférentes à leur voisinage. Toutes les reines pondent des œufs en nombre variable sans rapport avec leur degré de sociabilité.
    Notes: Summary 1. The form of normal groups ofMyrmica rubra has been studied in artificial nests consisting of a single tier of cells. An envelope of workers spreads out and covers the queens and brood leaving a cortex composed only of workers that functions as a defensive zone and a zone in which prey are prepared for ingestion. The cortex is especially well developed near the entrance. As the egg cluster grows, it breaks up, often with worker help and releases larvae; when these are ready to pupate the workers take them back into the central core of non-feeding brood and queens. 2. The sociability of queens varies from those that are often alone, to those that are rarely alone and spend most of their time with other queens. Sociable queens may be very specific in the individuals they associate with or very indifferent to their companions. All the queens lay eggs in variable numbers but the quantity is not related to their sociability.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Auf der Insel Negros, Philippinen, wurde ein aus Bambus gebautes Bauernhaus entdeckt, das mindestens 84 Kolonien von stachellosen Bienen beherbergte, und zwar der beiden ArtenTrigona (Tetragonula) fuscobalteata undT. (Tetragonula) sapiens in einem Verhältnis von ungefähr 3∶1. Die Nester waren in Bambussegmenten, je mit einem Rauminhalt von 0,7–3,0 1. Die Neststruktur entspricht generell dem Typus der Unterfamilie. Die Flugröhre ist einfach und nicht besonders lang. Die Röhrenöffnung ist beiT. sapiens länger und enger als beiT. fuscobalteata, obwohlT. sapiens einen breiteren Kopf besitzt. Die Brutzellen sind nicht in Waben angeordnet, sondern bilden traubenförmige Haufen. Sie sind auch nicht von einem Involucrum umgegeben. Es gibt Hinweise, daß stachellosen Bienen in trockenen Gebieten der Philippinen häufiger vorkommen.
    Notes: Summary A bamboo farmhouse on Negros island, Philippines harbored at least 84 colonies ofTrigona (Tetragonula) fuscobalteata andT. (Tetragonula) sapiens in a ratio of about 3∶1. Nests were in bamboo stem cavities of 0.7–3.0 1 volume. In neither species does The nest show specialized features relative to the subfamily. The entrance tube is simple and of medium length. The tube aperture is longer and narrower inT. sapiens thanT. fuscobalteata, although the former species has a greater head-width. Brood-cells are arranged in clusters, not in organized combs, and are not surrounded by an involucrum. p There is some indication that within the Philippines stingless bees are more abundant in drier areas.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume L'influence de la taille des ouvrières et du comportement coopératif sur l'activité de récolte a été analysé chez 4 fourmis communes de prairie de la zone tempérée nordaméricaine:Lasius neoniger, Formica schaufussi, Myrmica americana, etMonomorium minimum. Les niches de ces espèces se recouvrent au niveau de la taille de leurs proies (arthropodes) et de leur activité temporelle de récolte. Les arthropodes sont ramenés par des fourrageuses solitaires ou par des groupes d'ouvrières qui coopèrent. Les espèces diffèrent par les proportions de proies ramenées suivant l'une ou l'autre méthode. Dans le cas du transport solitaire, la taille des proies est corrélée à celle des fourrageuses, mais cette corrélation disparaît dans le cas du transport coopératif. Enfin, il est discuté les différentes stratégies sociales de fourragement et l'évolution de la taille des ouvrières.
    Notes: Summary The common North Temperate open-field antsLasius neoniger, Formica schaufussi, Myrmica americana, andMonomorium minimum overlap temporally in foraging activity as well as in the sizes of arthropod prey in their diets. Arthropod prey were taken by both individual workers and cooperative worker groups, and species differed in the proportion of prey in the diet retrieved by each method. Although prey size was significantly correlated with worker size for individually retrieved prey, when cooperative foraging was considered worker size did not serve as a consistent predictor of prey choice. Contrasting social strategies of foraging and the evolution of worker body size differences are discussed.

Ainsi, un total de 36% des sociétés apparemment fondées par une femelle unique contenaient des descendants de première génération qui ne pouvaient provenir d'une femelle, fécondée une fois pour toutes.
    Notes: Summary Genotypes for 31 apparent, single foundresses and their first generation brood in the primitively eusocial sweat beeDialictus zephyrus were inferred from starch-gel electrophoresis of 8 enzyme coding loci. Thirteen percent of the colonies contained the progeny of more than one female, and an additional twenty-three percent contained the progeny of either more than one female or a single, twice-mated female. Thus a total of thirty-six percent of colonies apparently founded by a single female contained first generation brood which were not the progeny of one, singly-mated female.

Les soldats affamés ne sollicitent pas de nourriture des ouvriers, et ne sont pas nourris par eux quand ces ouvriers sont alimentés préalablement. Les résultats de laboratoire suggèrent que l'échange ouvrier-soldat est un comportement toujours initié par l'ouvrier et indépendant de létat nutrionnel du soldat.
    Notes: Summary Starved workers of the Formosan subterranean termite,Coptotermes formosanus Shiraki, initiated trophallactic exchanges with soldiers regardless of soldier nutritional status. Starved soldiers did not solicit food from workers and were not fed when workers had been fed previously. The laboratory results suggest that worker-soldier trophallactic exchange is a worker-initiated behavior and essentially independent of the nutritional state of the soldier.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Afin de déterminer le rôle de l'expérience sociale précoce sur l'ontogenèse de la reconnaissance des cocons par une espèce esclave de fourmi, des expériences de laboratoire ont été réalisées surFormica cunicularia, une espèce communément esclave deFormica sanguinea. Dans un test de choix, des ouvrières adultes deF. cunicularia provenant d'une colonie pure soignèrent uniquement des cocons homospécifiques, tandis qu'elles détruisirent les cocons hétérospécifiques, non familiers (F. sanguinea etF. lugubris). Après quoi, 3 groupes de colonies artificielles ont été constitués avec de jeunes ouvrières deF. cunicularia de même âge, retirées expérimentalement de leurs cocons. Après une période d'entraînement de quinze jours avec des cocons homospécifiques (groupe C), des cocons deF. sanguinea (groupe T), on en l'absence de tout cocon (groupe I), ces ouvrières furent soumises à un test de choix entre des cocons deF. cunicularia et deF. sanguinea. Le choix des ouvrières des groupes C et T fut toujours en faveur des cocons auxquels elles avaient été familiarisées au cours de la période d'entraînement. En outre, la privation des cocons rompit la discrimination des cocons et l'aptitude aux soins des fourmis du groupe I. Sur la base de ces données et de celles que nous avons obtenues récemment sur la reconnaissance des partenaires du nid chez la même espèce, nous pouvons soutenir que l'expérience sociale suivant immédiatement l'éclosion chez l'ouvrière deF. cunicularia peut expliquer son esclavage dans la nature et, par conséquent, l'altruisme interspécifique de cet hôte à l'égard de son parasite.
    Notes: Summary In order to determine the role of early social experience on the ontogeny of cocoon recognition by a slave-ant species, laboratory experiments were carried out inFormica cunicularia, a common slave ofFormica sanguinea. In a choice-test, adultF. cunicularia workers coming from a pure colony tended only the homospecific cocoons, whereas destroyed the heterospecific unfamiliar ones (F. sanguinea andF. lugubris). Subsequently, 3 groups of artificial colonies were set up with callowF. cunicularia workers of the same age experimentally removed from their cocoons. After a 15-day training period with homospecific cocoons (group C),F. sanguinea cocoons (group T), or in absence of any cocoons (group I), these workers were given a choice-test betweenF. cunicularia andF. sanguinea cocoons. The choice of the workers belonging to groups C and T was always directed towards the cocoons with which workers had become familiar during the training period. Moreover, early deprivation of cocoons disrupted the cocoon discrimination and care ability of ants belonging to group I. On the basis of these data and those recently obtained by us on nestmate recognition in the same species, we can assume that social experience immediately following eclosion ofF. cunicularia workers can fully explain their enslavement in nature and, therefore, the interspecific altruism of this host species towards the parasite.

Les relations entre les paramètres de la population, et les poids de la reine et des meules à champignons, sont approximativement linéaires pour tous les composants, les soldats et les présoldats exceptés. Les relations entre les paramètres des nids et leurs populations sont approximativement linéaires. Par conséquent, on peut estimer les populations des termites à partir des études de ces paramètres et densités de nids.
    Notes: Summary Nest populations grow rapidly while the nest is young, then stabilise to a fairly constant level in maturity. Relationships between population parameters, queen's weight and fungus comb weight are all approximately linear, with the exception of soldier and presoldiers numbers. Relationships between mound parameters and nest population are approximately linear, so that data from surveys of mound size and density can be used to estimate termite populations.

Une plus grande similarité a été notée entre l'IFS correspondant àL. alienus et aux hybrides qu'entre ces derniers et l'IFS deL. niger. Ceci a été étudié en rapport avec la compatibilkités de cette information avec des prédictions reposant sur la caste et le conflit intra- (dans le cas des ouvrières) et inter-castes comme déterminants de IF. Une évaluation de la relation des ouvrières entre elles à l'inteérieur d'une même colonie dans une population de fourmisL. alienus a été significativement supérieure à zéro. Bien qu'étant en accord avec la structure monogyne attribuée à cette espèce les limites de confiance au seuil de 95% du degré de relation pourrait aussi correspondre à un certain degré de polygynie et/ou de fécondation multiple.
    Notes: Summary The sex ratio of investment (SRI) or male investment frequencies (IFs) were estimated at the population and colony level in populations ofL. alienus, L. niger and their hybrids. More simlarity betweenL. alienus IFs and the hybrid IFs than between compatibility of these data with predictions dependent on the caste or intra (in the instance of workers) and inter caste conflict as determinants of the IF. An estimate of intra colonial, worker relatedness in aL. alienus population was significantly greater than zero. Whilst being consistent with the monogynous structure attributed to this species the 95% confidence limits of the relatedness value would also accommodate a degree of polygyny and/or multipe mating.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume La présence simultanée de plusieurs reines d'abeilles vierges, hors de leurs cellules, est empêchée, dans la période précédant l'essaimage, par un retar de l'émergence de toutes les reines, sauf une. De cette manière le combat entre reines est évité. Les processus responsables de ce retard ont été étudiés. La transmission du «tooting», son produit par la reine vierge hors de la cellule, a été analysée. Des reines prêtes à émerger percent l'extrémité inférieure de leur cellule. Chez des reines isolées cette activité a été interrompue par l'émission du «tooting» enregistré. Par conséquent leur sortie a été retardée de plusieurs heures. En outre, si les cellules royales étaient exposées au «tooting» au sein d'une ruche d'observation, l'émergence des reines était beaucoup plus retardée, parce que, dans ce cas, les ouvrières enferment les reines dans leur cellule. Le rôle des danses vibrantes dans cet enfermement, comportement souvent observé sur des cellules de reines prêtes à sortir, a été recherché, sans pourvoir être prouvé. On a constaté qu'un élément important du comportement des ouvrières au cours de l'enfermement était la fermeture des petits trous percés par la reine dans le bout de la cellule. Les incisions dans les cellules royales étaient refermées à la même vitesse avant et après la période de transmission du «tooting». La fermeture n'est donc pas influencée par le «tooting». On considère que le «tooting» et la fermeture des cellules par des ouvrières ne peuvent pas séparément retarder longuement la sortie des reines. Leur présence combinée est essentielle: le «tooting» inhibe l'activité des reines d'une manière suffisante pour que les ouvrières puissent empêcher leur sortie pendant quelques jours.
    Notes: Summary In honey bees the simultaneous presence of several emerged virgin queens in the period preceding afterswarming, is prevented by a delay of emergence of all queens but one. It this way fighting between queens is avoided. The processes responsible for this delay were studied. The significance of the tooting sounds produced by the emerged virgin queen was examined. Queens ready to emerge cut a cap of their cells. In isolated queens this activity was interrupted by replay of recorded tooting. Consequently their emergence was delayed for several hours. If, however, queen cells in observation hives were exposed to tooting, the emergence of queens was much more delayed, because in this situation worker bees confine the queens in their cells. The confining effect of vibratory dances, a worker behaviour often observed on cells with queens ready to emerge, was explored, but could not be demonstrated. An important element of worker behaviour, effectuating confinement, appeared to be the sealing of cuts made by the enclosed queens in their cell caps. Incisions in queen cells were closed at the same rate before and after a 24 h period of transmission of tooting, so sealing is not influenced by the presence of tooting. It is argued that separately tooting and sealing by workers cannot cause a long term delay of emergence of queens. Their combined presence is essential: tooting inhibits the activity of queens sufficiently to enable the workers to obstruct their emergence for days.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die AmeisePrenolepis imparis Say ist in Nord-Florida (USA) nur im Winter an der Erdoberfläche aktiv. Das Sammeln von Nahrung beginnt im November und endet im März oder Anfang April; danach verschließen die Arbeiterinnen das Nest bis zum November. Während der Periode des Nahrungssammelns wird die Gaster der Arbeiterinnen enorm dick, so daß das Gewicht dieser Arbeiterinnen sich verdoppelt oder verdreifacht. Die Gewichtszunahme wird durch den stark entwickelten Fettkörper verursacht und nicht durch die Füllung des Kropfes, wie man früher glaubte. Die Kolonie zieht bis Ende August oder Anfang September keine Brut auf, erst dann beginnen sich die Ovarien der Königin zu entwickeln und sie legt Eier. Diese Brut wird wahrscheinlich mit einem Sekret ernährt, für das die Energiespeicher der dicken Arbeiterinnen mobilisiert werden. Wenn die Nester im November wieder geöffnet werden, dann besteht der größte Teil der diesjährigen Brut aus jungen Arbeiterinnen oder Geschlechtstieren. Die Arbeiterinnen des Vorjahrs sind wieder mager, da sie ihre Fettkörperreserven an die Larven verfüttert haben. Diese alten Arbeiterinnen beginnen dann, Nahrung zu sammeln, während die jungen Arbeiterinnen für das nächste Jahr gemästet werden. Die Lebensdauer einer Arbeiterin beträgt also ein oder zwei Jahre oder mehr. Die meisten Nester sind polygyn, alle Königinnen sind fertil, doch legen sie vermutlich unterschiedlich viele Eier. Die Koloniegründung erfolgt wahrscheinlich pleometrotisch. Die Nester befinden sich sehr tief im Boden, sie reichen bis zu einer Tiefe von 2.5 m bis 3.6 m. Die Kammern haben einen waagerechten Boden und eine leicht gewölbte Decke, sie sind durch einen einzigen senkrechten Gang miteinander verbunden. Die Gesamtfläche der Kammern ist mit der Arbeiterinnenzahl korreliert. Die Nester werden vergrößert, indem sowohl neue Kammern gebaut als auch vorhandene Kammern erweitert werden. Wenn Kammern vergrößert werden, dann wird die ursprüngliche Kreisform pseudopodienartig ausgelappt. Es wurden keine Kammern in einer geringeren Tiefe als 60 cm gefunden, die meisten Kammern befanden sich in der unteren Hälfte dieser tiefen Nester, wodurch im größten Teil der Nester das ganze Jahr über eine Temperatur zwischen 16° und 24° C herrscht. Die 9 ausgegrabenen Nester enthielten zwischen 560 und über 10.000 Arbeiterinnen. Mit drei voneinander unabhängigen Bestimmungen der jährlichen Zunahme der Arbeiterinnenzahl wurde das Alter des größten Kolonie auf 7 bis 9 Jahre geschätzt. Die Arbeiterinnen waren in den Nestern spezifisch verteilt. Junge, gemästete Arbeiterinnen wurden in den tieferen Kammern gefunden, während sich die Arbeiterinnen des Vorjahrs, die jetzt Sammlerinnen waren, häufiger in der Nähe der Oberfläche aufhielten. Es wird diskutiert, daß die Lebensweise dieser kryophilen Ameise und speziell das Nahrungssammeln während der kalten Jahreszeit die Konkurrenz mit anderen Ameisen mindert.
    Notes: Summary In north Florida (USA), foraging and above-ground activity of the antPrenolepis imparis Say begins in November and ends in March or early April when the workers seal the nest until the following November. During this winter foraging period, workers' gasters become enormously corpulent through deposition of fat, doubling to tripling worker lean weight. The colony remains reproductively inactive until late August or early September when the queen's ovaries develop and she lays eggs. The single pulse of brood is probably reared on material derived from the corpulent workers. When the workers reopen the nests in November, most of the brood are callow workers or sexuals and all of the previous year's workers are again lean, their nutrient stores having been converted to new workers. The old workers become foragers while the callows become corpulent for the next year. Workers thus live between 1 and 2 (or more) years. Most nests are polygynous, and all queens contribute to the egg pool, though probably not equally. The nests are 2.5 to 3.6 meters deep and consist of horizontal-floored, slightly domed chambers connected by a single vertical tunnel. As the worker population grows, total chamber floor area is increased by adding more chambers and by enlarging chambers, changing their shape from simple, nearly circular to lobed, ‘pseudopodial’ shapes. No chambers were found less than 60 cm below the ground surface, and most were in the bottom half of these deep nests, keeping most of the nest between 16 and 24° C, year-round. Among the 9 colonies sampled, the number of workers varied from 560 to over 10,000. An incipient colony contained 33 nanitic workers and a single queen. Using the annual increase in worker population, the largest colonies were estimated to be 7 to 9 years old. Young, replete workers were found in the deeper chambers, while the previous years' workers (now foragers) were more abundant near the surface. The peculiar life cycle of this winter-active ant is discussed as an avoidance of competition with other ants by foraging during the cold season.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Les nids deCamponotus detritus sont des structures simples, creusées parmi les racines de la végétation pérenne des dunes du désert de Namibie. Ils comprennent une série de tunnels et de chambres de 100–400 mm de profondeur, souvent tapissés avec des détritus. On ne trouve pas de «chambre royale» ou de réserves de nourriture. Le couvain se trouvait d'un bout à l'autre du nid. Les températures des nids variaient considérablement. Les températures moyennes des nids étaient d'environ 32°C en été et 20–23°C en hiver. Le nombre d'ouvrières par nid variait de 218 à 16 000 avec une moyenne de 3 404±570. Chaque colonie comprenait un à quatre nids. Seulement un nid par colonie avait des reines. Le développement des colonies et le changement de localisation des nids avaient lieu fréquemment.
    Notes: Summary Camponotus detritus nests are simple structures excavated among the roots of perennial vegetation in the sand dunes of the Namib Desert. They comprise a series of tunnels and chambers 100–400 mm deep, often lined with detritus. No “royal chamber” or food stores were found. Brood was found throughout the nest, throughout the year. Nest temperatures varied considerably. Mean nest temperatures were about 32°C in summer and 20–23°C in winter. The number of workers per nest varied from 218 to 16,000 with a mean and standard error of 3,404±570. Each colony comprised one to four nests. Only one nest per colony housed queens. Colony expansion and nest relocation occurred frequently.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary We have studied the individual fecundity of queens belonging to a polygynous ant species reared in digynous conditions. Two major results appear: - the queen's individual fecundity, quantified during 5 weeks, is lower when queens are reared in digynous conditions than in monogynous conditions. The queens in digynous conditions put on less weight and the fecundity decreases. - when the two queens of an artificial digynous culture have the same physiological characters (equal weight), they lay the same number of eggs. So, inPlagiolepis pygmaea, there is neither functional monogyny nor physiological hierarchy. We could explain the decrease of the individual fecundity of the digynous queens by two hypothesis: the sharing of food between queens and the reciprocal production of queen pheromones. The acuteness of these two hypothesis inPlagiolepi is discussed.
    Notes: Resume Ce travail a pour but d'étudier la fécondité des reines d'une espèce polygyne dans un cas simplifié, celui de la digynie. Deux résultats apparaissent: - la fécondité individuelle des reines établie sur cinq semaines de ponte en condition de digynie est très diminuée par rapport à celle des reines élevées en condition monogyne. Cette baisse de fécondité est liée à une moins bonne prise de poids des reines en situation digyne; - lorsque deux reines en situation de digynie présentent au début de l'expérience des caractères physiologiques voisins (poids égal), elles émettent des quantités comparables d'œufs; il n'y a donc pas de monogynie fonctionnelle chezPlagiolepis pygmaea, ni de hiérarchie physiologique. Deux mécanismes pourraient expliquer la baisse de fécondité individuelle dans le cas de la digynie: le partage de la nourriture entre les reines et l'émission réciproque de substances phéromonales royales tendant à diminuer la ponte de l'autre reine. Leur efficacité dans le cas desPlagiolepis est discutée.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume Nous décrivons quantitativement l'organisation sociale chezAneuretus simoni avec un éthogramme social. La majorité des comportements des reines et des petites et grandes ouvrières est semblable à ceux des espèces de fourmis des sous-familles supérieures. L'analyse de Fagen-Goldman des fréquences des comportements montre que le répertoire observé était complet. Les tailles des répertoires étaient 5 comportements (reine), 14 comportements (grandes ouvrières), 28 comportements (petites ouvrières jeunes), et 31 comportements (petites ouvrières mûres). Ces tailles de répertoires sont comparables à celles d'autres espèces de fourmis. Les grandes ouvrières, dont on trouve seulement moins de deux en moyenne par colonie, ne montrent pas de comportements de soins envers les larves. Elles ne montrent pas de comportements défensifs. Les ouvrières jeunes montrent les comportements envers la reine, les larves, et aussi le comportement de récolte. Une comparaison de l'organisation sociale chezAneuretus simoni avec celle d'autres espèces primitives montre que le comportement social est semblable à celui des dolichodérines.
    Notes: Summary Social behavior inAneuretus simoni is quantitatively described in a social ethogram. The majority of acts exhibited by queens and minor and major workers are typical behaviors observed in species of the higher subfamilies of ants. A Fagen-Goldman analysis of the frequency of behavioral acts indicated that the observed repertory was complete. Observed repertory sizes were 5 acts (the queen), 14 acts (major workers), 28 acts (callow minor workers) and 31 acts (mature minor workers). These repertory sizes are comparable to those observed in other ant species. Major workers, which average less than two in number per colony, do not show brood care. Majors were also never observed to participate in colony defense. The behavioral repertory of callow minor workers includes queen-related acts, brood care, and foraging. A comparison of social organization inA. simoni and other so-called primitive and advanced species indicates that social behavior is very similar to that of dolichoderine species.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Foragers (huntresses) of the predaceous antSmithistruma truncatidens develop behaviorally from guard ants, which in turn originate from one or the other of two pathways: some serve first as nurses, others become directly guards. These stages behave differently towards the principal preys (Isotomid collembolans), as follows: flight or no reaction in young individuals; avoidance or backward movement in nurses; direct attack followed by stinging in guards; pause followed by approach and antennating, then seizure by appendage and stinging in huntress workers. Under experimental conditions, huntress workers acquire pausing behavior generally between the 16th and the 19th day after their first going outside the nest.
    Notes: Resume Une étude sur le polyéthisme montre que chezS. truncatidens les ouvrières pourvoyeuses sont issues des gardiennes ayant elles-mêmes une double ascendance. Une partie provient d'ouvrières inactives, l'autre, de nourrices. Lorsqu'on place des ouvrières des différents status sociaux en présence de proies essentielles (Collemboles Isotomidae) nous observons les réactions suivantes: fuite ou absence de réaction chez les néonates, évitement ou recul chez les nourrices, attaque directe et piqûre chez les gardiennes et immobilisations (arrêt) suivie d'une approche lente et d'une palpation antennaire bien marquée précédant la saisie d'un appendice et la piqûre chez les pourvoyeuses. L'acquisition de la phase d'arrêt chez les pourvoyeuses dans les conditions de nos expériences a lieu le plus souvent entre le 16e et le 19e jour suivant la première sortie.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Ants of the genusAphaenogaster (A. senilis, A. subterranea) do not engage in the usual exchange of foodstuff from mouth to mouth, but employ a complex method for provisioning of their colony. Workers carry to the nest various objects imbibed or coated with liquid sugar or body fluid from crushed insects. In the nest, other workers lick the food on the objects. The foragers are capable of placing these intermediary objects on the liquid food supply before carrying them away. They can thus be said to use them as “tools” in the conventional ethological acception.
    Notes: Resume Les fourmis du genreAphaenogaster, qui ne pratiquent pas le transfert de substances de bouche à bouche, utilisent une méthode complexe pour assurer l'approvisionnement de la société. Elles transportent jusqu'au nid des matériaux divers, imbibés ou enrobés de liquides sucrés ou de sucs animaux, qui sont ensuite léchés par les ouvrières restées dans le nid. Les récolteuses sont capables, avant ces prélèvements, d'apporter et de déposer des matériaux sur les sources de nourriture liquide offerte. Cette séquence de comportements peut être assimilée à l'emploi d'un «outil» au sens classique du terme en éthologie.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The closure of ant societies was investigated in someLeptothorax species (mainlyL. lichtensteini) and inCamponotus lateralis ants, first by transferring individual workers to alien societies of the same species, and secondly by placing two societies of the same species together in an arena. Various behavioural modalities were observed. In theLeptothorax ants studied, the interactions occurring between a society and an intruder worker and those occurring during encounters among workers of two societies placed together in an arena showed on analysis that the behaviour of the workers in a society was highly variable and depended upon the intruding individual or society with which they were confronted. Wether a society will turn out to be open or closed depdends on the partners involved. Differences were observed according to whether the subjects wereLeptothorax ants belonging to the subgenusMyrafant (mainlyL. lichtensteini), orL. recedens ants belonging to the subgenusTemnothorax. On the other hand, no variability was observed amongC. lateralis ants subjected to the above experimental conditions, and the latter societies were found to be strictly closed.
    Notes: Resume Le processus de fermeture de la société est étudié chez quelquesLeptothorax (principalementL. lichtensteini), ainsi que chezCamponotus lateralis, en réalisant des transferts d'individus dans des sociétés étrangères, de même espèce, et en mettant en présence deux sociétés, également de même espèce, dans une arène. Différentes modalités comportementales apparaissent. Chez lesLeptothorax étudiés, l'analyse des interactions entre sociétés receveuse et ouvrière intruse d'une part, et entre les ouvrières lors de rencontres dans l'arène d'autre part, a permis de mettre en évidence une grande variabilité du comportement des ouvrières d'une société selon l'individu étranger ou la société mis en leur présence: en fonction du partenaire, une société peut se montrer ouverte ou fermée. Des différences apparaissent d'autre part selon qu'il s'agit deLeptothorax appartenant au sous-genreMyrafant (en particulierL. lichtenstein) ou de l'espèceL. recedens du sous genreTemnothorax. Au contraire, chezC. lateralis, dans les mêmes conditions expérimentales, on n'observe pas de variabilité des interactions; les sociétés se montrent rigoureusement fermées.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Bees visiting an artificial food source were observed in order to determine the frequency of occurrence of antenna-grooming movements as a function of the concentration of the sugar solution. Sojourns at the source during which no antenna grooming occurred were more frequent when the concentration was low or high than when it was intermediate; when antenna-grooming is performed during a sojourn, the number of such movements increases with rising concentration (fig. 1). The combination of antenna-grooming with other movements also depends on concentration. As concentration increases, so does the frequency of multiple consecutive antenna-grooming movements as well as the frequency of grooming movements separated by operation of the proboscis (fig. 2a, b). Antenna-groming movements between which other parts of the body are groomed occur most often with a 15% solution (fig. 2c); the combination in which the bee uses its proboscisand grooms other body parts between two antenna-grooming movements is most common with a 32% solution (fig. 2d). As concentration increases, the proportion of antenna-grooming movements carried out during sucking rises (fig. 3 above). As concentration decreases, the instances of unilateral antenna-grooming movements account for a larger proportion of all antenna grooming (fig. 3 below). The number of interruptions of sucking at the end of the sojourn is maximal at intermediate concentrations (fig. 4). The results are interpreted as follows. The central controller for antenna-grooming movements interacts with the controllers responsable for the other grooming movements. It is also influenced by the controllers for sucking. The interpretation of the genesis of antenna-grooming movements is an extended application of the disinhibition hypothesis for displacement activities.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung An einer künstlichen Futterquelle wurde die Häufigkeit des Auftretens von Fühlerputzbewegungen in Abhängigkeit von der Konzentration der Zuckerlösung untersucht. Bei niedrigen und hohen Konzentrationen sind Aufenthalte ohne Fühlerputzbewegungen häufiger als bei mittleren; wenn während eines Aufenthals Fühlerputzbewegungen auftreten, nimmt deren Anzahl mit steigender Konzentration zu (Abb. 1). Die Häufigkeit unmittelbar aufeinanderfolgender Fühlerputzbewegungen steigt mit zunehmender Konzentration; dasselbe gilt für Fühlerputzbewegungen, zwischen denen der Rüssel betätigt wird (Abb. 2a und b). Fühlerputzbewegungen, zwischen denen andere Körperteile geputzt werden, treten am häufigsten bei einer 15% igen Lösung auf (Abb. 2c); betätigt die Biene zwischen zwei Fühlerputzbewegungen den Rüssel und putzt andere Körperteile, liegt das Maximum der Häufigkeit bei einer 32% igen Lösung (Abb. 2d). Mit zunehmender Konzentration wächst der Anteil während des Saugens ausgeführter Fühlerputzbewegungen (Abb. 3 oben). Mit abnehmender Konzentration wächst der Anteileinseitiger Fühlerputzbewegungen am gesamten Fühlerputzen (Abb. 3 unten). Die Anzahl der Saugunterbrechungen am Ende des Aufenthalts weist ein Maximum bei mittleren Konzentrationen auf (Abb. 4). Die Ergebnisse werden folgendermaßen gedeutet: Zwischen der zentralnervösen Instanz, welche die Fühlerputzbewegungen steuert und den Instanzen, welche für die übrigen Putzbewegungen verantwortlich sind, finden Wechselwirkungen statt. Außerdem wird diese Instanz von der für das Saugen zuständigen beeinflußt. Die Deutung für das Zustandekommen der Fühlerputzbewegungen ist eine erweiterte Anwendung der Enthemmungshypothese für Uebersprunghandlungen.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Wir berichten hier die Ergebnisse unserer Studien anPrionopelta amabilis, die erste genauere Untersuchung dieser pantropischen Gattung mit den kleinsten Arbeiterinnen in dem sehr primitiven Tribus Amblyoponini. 1. P. amabilis Kolonien wurden in verfaulenden Holzstämmen und Baumästen am Boden des Regenwaldes von Costa Rica gefunden. Zwei Kolonien, die sehr sorgfältig aus dem Holz abgesammelt wurden, enthielten eine Königin und eine für den Tribus Amblyoponini ungewöhnlich grosse Population von Arbeiterinnen. Eine Kolonie, die auch jungfräuliche Weibchen enthielt, hatte über 700 Arbeiterinnen. 2. P. amabilis erbeutet bevorzugt Dipluren, sie nehmen aber auch einige andere Arthropoden als Beutetiere an. Die Beute wird direkt an die Larven verfüttert. Die Königin erhält trophische Eier, die offensichtlich von den Arbeiterinnen gelegt werden. 3. Eine schwache, doch deutlich erkennbare, Arbeitsteilung zwischen verschiedenen Altersklassen existiert. Damit unterscheidet sichP. amabilis vonAmblyopone pallipes, die enzige andere Amblyoponine, die in dieser Hinsicht untersucht wurde. Jüngere Arbeiterinnen pflegen Brut und Königin. Aeltere Arbeiterinnen sind vorwiegend Futtersammler. Wie zu erwarten sind die Ovarien der Arbeiterinnen, die die Königin pflegen besser entwickelt, als die der Furagierameisen. 4. Soziales Trageverhalten unter adulten Ameisen konnte nicht beobachtet werden. Während Nestemigrationen wird nur die Brut transportiert. Ein merkwürdiges Schleifen der Hintertarsen bei einzelnen Arbeiterinnen könnte dem Spurenlegen oder der Substratmarkierung dienen. 5. Die Nestkammern, in denen Puppen gehalten werden, sind häufig mit alten Puppenkokonteilchen tapeziert. Das dient offensichtlich dazu, die Puppenkammern trockener zu halten.
    Notes: Summary We report here the first detailed account of a member ofPrionopelta, a pantropical genus possessing the smallest workers in the primitive ant tribe Amblyoponini. 1. Colonies ofP. amabilis were found nesting in small rotting logs and tree branches on the floor of primary rain forest in Costa Rica. Two that were more carefully excavated possessed a single dealate queen and a worker population unusually large for Amblyoponini. One of the latter colonies, which was in the process of eclosing alate queens (during late March), contained over 700 workers. 2. P. amabilis workers prey preferentially on campodeid diplurans, although they also accept (less readily) a limited variety of other small arthropods. The prey are given directly to the larger larvae. The queen is fed trophic eggs which we infer to have been laid by the workers. 3. A moderately well-marked temporal division of labor occurs, thus distinguishingP. amabilis fromAmblyopone pallipes, the only other amblyoponine hitherto studied in this regard. Younger workers attend the brood and queen, forming a retinue around the latter individual. Older workers are more active in foraging. As expected, the ovaries are better developed in workers associated with the queen than in foragers. 4. Emigration to nest sites is conducted individually, with the workers carrying brood but not other adult nestmates. A foot-dragging behavior, possibly associated with trail-laying, is described. Alarm pheromones are apparently absent. 5. A unique “wall-papering” behavior was also discovered: the workers line the pupal chambers with fragments of discarded pupal cocoons, rendering these spaces drier and hence presumably more suitable for pupal occupation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Erebomyrma, eine neotropische Gattung des Tribus Pheidologetini, hat nicht nur einen mitPheidole konvergenten Kastendimorphismus, sondern gleichtPheidole auch in der Form der Arbeitsteilung. Die Soldaten (major Kaste) vonE. nevermanni, helfen bei der Ueberwältigung von Beute, verteidigen das Nest, und dienen als Speichertier für flüssige Nahrung. Bei Anwesenheit der minor Arbeiterinnen haben sie ein begrenztes und spezialisiertes Verhaltensrepertoire, das jedoch erweitert wird (einschliesslich Nahrungssammeln und Brutpflege), wenn die minor Arbeiterinnen entfernt werden. Gleichlaufend mit dieser Bereicherung des Verhaltensrepertoires erfolgt eine etwa zehnfache Zunahme der allgemeinen Aktivität. Weitere Einzelheiten zur Biologie und zum Sozialverhalten vonE. nevermanni werden berichtet. Am bemerkenswertesten ist das »Verteidigungs-Gefolge« um die Königin, das verstärkt wird, wenn die Kolonie offen gelegt wird; die Nutzung von Sammelstrassen; das Erbeuten von Arthropoden-Eiern; und das Fehlen von sozialem Trageverhalten unter adulten Ameisen bei Kolonieemigration.
    Notes: Summary Erebomyrma, a Neotropical genus of pheidologetine ants with caste dimorphism convergent to that ofPheidole, also resemblesPheidole in its pattern of division of labor. The major workers ofE. nevermanni, the species examined during this study, assist in subduing larger prey, defend the nest, and serve as semi-repletes in liquid food storage. Their repertory is limited and specialized when minor workers are present but expands to include foraging and brood care when the minor workers are removed. The expansion is accompanied by a 10X or more increase in general activity rate. Other details of the natural history and social behavior ofE. nevermanni are given. The most distinctive properties include the occurence of defensive retinues around the queen which intensify when the colony is exposed, the use of trunk trails during foraging, predation on arthropod eggs, and the absence of adult transport during colony emigration.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Freiland- und Laboratoriumsuntersuchungen einer Kolonie vonMyrmoteras toro, die im Central Sulawesi gesammelt wurde, und einerM. barbouri Kolonie von Singapore, lieferten die ersten ökologischen und verhaltensbiologischen Informationen über diese wenig bekannte Gattung der Unterfamilie Formicinae. Die Arbeiter jagen einzeln und fangen mit ihren langen Schnapp-Kiefern kleine weiche Evertebraten, ähnlich wie es von Arten der Dacetini und Odontomachini bekannt ist. Bevor die Jägerinnen zuschnappen öffnen sie Kiefer um 280°. Das ist der grösste Mandibel-Offnungswinkel, der bisher von Ameisen bekannt ist. Bei der Nestverteidigung werden Eindringlinge häufig mit den Mandibeln gestossen. M. toro jagt kleine, weiche Arthropoden, währendM. barbouri nahezu ausschliesslich Springschänze fängt. Ich nehme an, dass die Trigger-Haare, die typisch fürM. barbouri und andere Arten der UntergattungMyrmoteras sind, eine spezielle Anpassung für das Collembolenjagen sind. Rekrutierung zu Futter und Nestplätzen scheint nicht vorzukommen.
    Notes: Summary Field and laboratory studies on a colony ofMyrmoteras toro collected in Central Sulawesi and aM. barbouri colony from Singapore have provided the first ecological and behavioral information on this enigmatic formicine genus. Both species capture prey singly by the trap-jaw method, much as do many dacetine and odontomachine ants. Before striking the ants open their jaws 280°, the greatest degree yet recorded in the ants. Also, the nest area is defended from encroachment by other invertebrates by slapping intruders repeatedly with the mandibles. M. toro workers catch a variety of small, soft-bodied arthropods.M. barbouri preys largely or entirely on springtails. I hypothesize that the trigger hairs characteristic ofM. barbouri and other species of the subgenusMyrmoteras could represent an adaptation to collembolan prey. Recruitment to food (sugar baits) and during emigrations appears to be absent.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The role of antennal contacts made by the donor worker on the receiver's head during trophallactic interactions among Ants (Camponotus vagus) was investigated by studying the food flow characteristics: amount of foodstuff transmitted, duration and speed of transmission. For this purpose, we either removed both the donors' antennal funicles or tied their scape/funicule articulations in the flexed position. The parameters of food transmission between control workers were found to depend on seasonal factors: the consequences of both antennal removal and immobilization were therefore analysed for each season separately. The workers with antennal lesions gave more food than control workers in spring and summer. On the contrary, in autumn the lesions did not bring about any significant change. The antennal contacts made by the donor on the receiver's head might be involved in the regulation of trophallactic food transmission, at least in spring and summer.
    Notes: Resume Nous avons recherché quel est, lors des interactions trophallactiques entre ouvrières de Fourmi (Camponotus vagus), le rôle des contacts antennaires effectués par l'ouvrière donneuse sur la tête de la receveuse, quant aux caractéristiques du flux: quantité de nourriture transmise, durée, vitesse de transmission. Dans ce but, nous avons pratiqué soit l'ablation des funicules antennaires de la donneuse, soit l'immobilisation, en position pliée, des articulations scape/funicule. Chez les témoins, les caractéristiques du flux trophallactique varient avec la saison. Il en est de même pour les effets de l'ablation ou de l'immobilisation, qui ont donc été étudiés séparément pour chaque saison. Au printemps et en été, les ouvrières opérées donnent plus de nourriture que les ouvrières intactes. En automne, au contraire, l'opération n'entraîne pas de modification significative. Il apparaît que, du moins au printemps et en été, les contacts des antennes de l'ouvrière donneuse peuvent intervenir dans la régulation du flux trophallactique.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die zwei untersuchtenPseudomyrmex-Arten haben die folgenden Kommunikationssysteme: a) P. triplarinus informiert ihre Nestgenossinnen über das Vorhandensein von Futter, aber nicht über dessen Lage.P. termitarius hat keinerlei Kommunikation bei der Futtersuche. b) Beide Arten erkennen ihr Territorium anhand von Duftstoffen.P. triplarinus markiert ihr Territorium mit einem Pheromon aus dem Thorax, wahrscheinlich von der Metathorakaldrüse. Die territoriale Markierung hat eine Lebensdauer von einer halben bis einer Stunde. Sie dient wahrscheinlich der Verteidigung des Territoriums. Die Markierung vonP. termitarius hält über 5 Stunden an und wirkt wahrscheinlich als Nesteingangs-Orientierungsmarke. Die Herkunft des Duftstoffes ist nicht klar. c) P. triplarinus benützt ein Pheromon aus dem Kopf als Signal für das Erkennen ihrer Schwestern.P. termitarius verwendet nicht-identifizierte Duftstoffe, die überall im Körper vorhanden sind, als Identifikationssignal. d) Beide Arten haben Alarmpheromone im Kopf und im Abdomen. Die Kommunikationssysteme werden im Zusammenhang mit der oekologischen Adaption der Arten analysiert.
    Notes: Summary The twoPseudomyrmex species studied have the following communication systems: a) P. triplarinus informs its nestmates about the presence of food, but not about its location.P. termitarius does neither. b) Both species recognize their territory and/or area around the nest entrance through odours on the substrate.P. triplarinus marks its territory with a pheromone from the thorax, probably from the metapleural gland. This territorial mark lasts less than 1 h, and probably advertises at least part of the home range of the colony. The territorial odour used byP. termitarius, probably works as a nest entrance orientation mark, and lasts over 5 h, but less than 24 h. The origin of the odour is not clear. c) P. triplarinus uses a cephalic pheromone as the main signal for nestmate recognition.P. termitarius uses non-identified odours, present on all body parts of the insect, as a nestmate recognition signal. d) Both species produce alarm pheromones from the head and the gaster. The communication systems are interpreted in relation to the ecological adaptations of each species.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary Colonies ofMessor barbarus are monogynous and closed. Tests on societies during foundation showed that their closure is not complete. As long as the gyne is alone, she attacks and kills any stranger. When she has eggs and larvae, she accepts foreign eggs and larvae. With young workers, she may accept foreign workers and tolerate another gyne. It is possible to form a colony with two queens by joining two young societies. Older workers become aggressive and attack foreign conspecific ants: the societies are then permanently closed. Explanations of these changes in aggression are discussed.
    Notes: Resume Les sociétés deMessor barbarus apparaissent monogynes et fermées. Des expériences sur des sociétés en cours de fondation ont montré que leur fermeture n'est pas totale. Tant que la femelle fondatrice est seule, elle attaque et tue tous les individus étrangers. Son agressivité diminue quand elle possède du couvain. Peu après la naissance des premières ouvrières, les individus étrangers sont adoptés et il est même possible d'obtenir des sociétés définitivement digynes en réunissant deux jeunes sociétés. Au bout de quelques semaines naissent des ouvrières agressives vis-à-vis des étrangers et les sociétés sont alors définitivement fermées. Des explications à ces changements de l'agressivité sont proposées et discutées.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume On a déjà montré (Brian, 1986b) que la sociabilité des reines deMyrmica rubra L. variait de l'état solitaire à très sociable. On rapporte ici que dans la colonie, les reines sociables se trouvent à proximité des œufs. Ces reines sont, au moins dans leur seconde année, plus lourdes car leurs ovaires et les tissus adipeux sont plus développés et leur fécondité est supérieure à celle des reines solitaires. Les reines solitaires vivent à la périphérie de la colonie et sont plus légères; leurs ovaires sont plus petits soit parce qu'ils se sont moins développés, soit parce qu'ils ont dégénéré. La fécondité est faible. Il s'agit de jeunes reines, de reines très âgées ou parfois de reines blessées. Les populations d'ouvrières varient en fonction du degré avec lequel elles régulent la répartition des reines; celles qui empêchent leur regroupement diminuent également la fécondité. Ainsi l'aversion mutuelle des reines et la régulation de la caste par les ouvrières limitent le nombre des reines présentes au cœur de la société. Seules les reines en pleine maturité qui peuvent pondre des œufs bipotentiels et ainsi contribuer au développement de la colonie peuvent fréquenter le cœur du nid.
    Notes: Summary Queens ofMyrmica rubra L. living in natural groups of workers, have been shown to range from sociable to solitary (Brian, 1986b). More data are now presented to show that the sociable queens tend to inhabit the core near the eggs, to be heavier as a result of having a well developed ovary and fat-body, to be at least in their second year of age and to lay more eggs. The solitary queens live peripherally and are lighter, have shorter ovaries that are either undeveloped or degenerate and only lay a few eggs. They are a mixture of first-year queens, spent queens or infirm ones. Worker populations vary in the degree to which they regulate the dispersion of queens; those which oppose central clustering also reduce fecundity. Thus both the queens by their mutual aversion and the workers by their grading of queens restrict entry into the nest core. Only the mature queens that can lay sex-competent eggs and so contribute to the full development of the society are able to frequent the core.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Der Lebensraum und die Nestbiologie der Afrikanischen Honigbiene,Apis mellifera scutellata, wurden an Völkern im natürlichen Verbreitungsgebiet im Delta des Okavango Flusses, Botswana, untersucht. Beobachtungen der Vegetation zeigten, daß den Völkern im Delta das ganze Jahr über reichlich Nahrung zur Verfügung steht. Die Koloniedichte betrug 7.8 Nester/km2. Nesthöhlen fanden sich gleich häufig in Bäumen wie in Termitenhügeln, sie hatten ein Volumen von ca. 17 L, waren nicht propolisiert und hatten nach Süden gerichtete, oben liegende Eingänge. Die Völker im Delta waren klein (ca. 6,500 Arbeiterinnen), sie bauten wenig Waben (ca. 3,000 cm2), speicherten wenig Nahrung, verwendeten 78% der Waben für die Brut und sie verfteidigten ihr Nest nur schwach; die Verlustrate durch Räuber betrug 48%. Die charakteristischen Eigenschaften, die fürscutellata in dieser Untersuchung beobachtet wurden, werden als Anpassungen an das heisse Klima, an die lange Trachtperiode und an die im Delta auftretende hohe Verlustrate diskutiert. Die Ergebnisse, die an Völkern im Delta gewonnen wurden, werden verglichen mit Ergebnissen anscutellata in anderen tropischen Gebieten und mit Ergebnissen anscutellata in anderen tropischen Gebieten und mit Ergebnissen an Honigbienen in gemäßigten Klimazonen.
    Notes: Summary The habitat and nesting biology were studied for naturally occurring colonies of the African honey bee,Apis mellifera scutellata, in the Okavango River Delta, Botswana. Vegetational surveys revealed that the forage available to Delta colonies was abundant and potentially available year round. Colonies had a density of 7.8 nests/km2. Nest cavities occurred with equal frequency in trees and termite mounds, had a volume of approximately 17 L, were unpropolized, and had south-facing, top-located entrances. Delta colonies were small (ca. 6,500 workers), constructed small amounts of comb (ca. 3,000 cm2), stored little food, devoted 78% of comb space to brood production, exhibited little nest defense, and experienced a 48% predation rate during the 5 month study period. The characteristics observed forscutellata in this study are discussed as adaptations to the hot climate, long foraging season, and high predation rate experienced in the Delta. Data for the Delta colonies are compared to those forscutellata in other tropical areas, and to honey bees in temperate climate regions.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Arbeiterinnen vonCamponotus spp., die in weisellosen Gruppen aufgezogen wurden, erkennen nestfremde Verwandte anscheinend auf grund von genetisch bedingten chemischen Abzeichen oder “Diskriminatoren”, während Arbeiterinnen, die in Gegenwart einer Königen gehalten werden, von der Königin Abzeichen annehmen, die ein solches Verwandtenerkennen verhindern. Wir untersuchten, inwieweit diese von der Königin stammenden Abzeichen ebenfalls genetisch bedingte chemische Marken darstellen. Dazu wurdenC. floridanus Arbeitergruppen, bestehend aus genetischen Geschwistern, oder nicht verwandten Tieren, in Gegenwart jeweils einer nicht begatteten Königin aufgezogen. Die Königinnen waren entweder Schwestern oder stammten aus verschiedenen, weit entfernten Nestern. In neutralen Arenatests wurde geprüft, inwieweit sich Angehörige verschiedener Adoptionsgruppen als Geschwister erkennen können. Dabei zeigte sich, dass Arbeiterinnen aus Gruppen, deren Adoptions-Königinnen Schwestern waren, sich weniger aggressiv zueinander verhielten, als Arbeiterinnen deren Adoptions-Königinnen aus verschiedenen Nestern stammten. Das legt den Schluss nahe, dass die von Königinnen übertragenen Abzeichen echte Diskriminatoren darstellen.
    Notes: Summary Camponotus spp. workers reared in queenless groups recognize non-nestmate kin, apparently by shared heritable chemical cues or “discriminators”, while workers reared in the presence of mated queens acquire labels which superoede such recognition. Whether queen-derived labels are themselves discriminators has not been examined previously. Groups of sister or unrelated workers ofC. floridanus were adopted to sister or unrelated virgin queens, and recognition among non-nestmate adoptees was assayed in neutral arena encounters. Interactions were significantly less aggressive among workers whose queens were sisters than among those whose queens were not, indicating that their acquired recognition cues are queen discriminators.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Für die subtropische Polistine WespeRopalidia fasciata, die neue Nester unabhängig gründet, werden das Wachstum neugegründeter Kolonien sowie deren Überlebensrate beschrieben. Wird ein Nest von mehreren Weibchen gemeinsam gegründet, so stammen diese Weibchen vom selben Elternnest. Die Wachstumsrate neugegründeter Nester in Zellen/Tag (entspricht etwa der Eilegerate) hängt sowohl von dem Entwicklungsstadium der Kolonie wie auch von der Anzahl der Weibchen ab. Die Nestentwicklung (Zellen/Tag) ist positiv mit der Anzahl der Weibchen korreliert. Die Nestgröße nimmt im ersten Stadium, in dem nur Eier vorhanden sind, schneller zu als in dem folgenden Stadium, in dem auch Larven vorhanden sind. Die ersten Arbeiterinnen haben eine kürzere Entwicklungszeit als die später aufgezogenen Arbeiterinnen. Dieser Unterschied dürfte mit der intensiven Brutpflege der Weibchen für die ersten Larven zusammenhängen. Neugegründete Kolonien gehen vor allem durch äußere Ursachen zugrunde: (1) Durch den Verlust der Nestgründerinnen in solchen Kolonien, die von einem Weibchen allein gegründet wurden; (2) durch große Räuber, die auch Kolonien mit mehreren Nestgründerinnen vernichten.
    Notes: Summary Growth of preemergence colonies and colony survivorship of an independent founding polistine wasp,Ropalidia fasciata, in the subtropics are described. When a nest is founded by an association of females, foundresses originate from the same natal nest. Growth rate of preemergence nests in cells/day (nearly equivalent to oviposition rate) is a function of both stage of preemergence colony development and number of foundresses. Rate of nest development (cells/day) is positively correlated with the number of attending foundresses. Nest size increases more rapidly in the egg stage than in the larval stage. The first worker(s) develops faster than does later brood. This may be attributed to the fact that foundresses provide the first larva(e) with intensive care. Factors causing the failure of preemergence colonies are extrinsic: (1) the loss of the foundresses in single-foundress colonies, and (2) predation by large predators on colonies with multiple foundresses.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume L'ovariectomie des fondatrices deP. gallicus permet de distinguer une dominance sociale d'une dominance de reproduction. Les fondatrices ovariectomisées peuvent acquérir un rang dominant et le conserver. Les caractéristiques de la dominance sociale (temps passé au nid, faible récolte de nourriture, comportement de dominance) ne sont pas liées a la présence des ovaires. Par contre, les ovariectomisées ne manifestent pas de dominance de reproduction. Elles n'inhibent pas la formation des œufs des subordonnées avec la même intensité que les dominantes intactes; elles ne pratiquent pas d'oophagie différentielle. Ces deux caractères impliquent la présence d'ovaires actifs.
    Notes: Summary By means of ovariectomy it was possible to separate social and reproductive dominance in foundresses ofP. gallicus. Ovariectomized foundresses could achieve and maintain the dominant position. Characteristics of social dominance (time on nest, low contribution to food collecting, dominance behaviour) were found not to be connected to the presence of ovaries. Reproductive dominance, however, did not occur in ovariectomized foundresses. Ovariectomized dominant females did not nihibit egg-formation in subordinates to the same degree as intact dominant females did and they did not show differential oophagy. For both characteristics the presence of active ovaries is necessary.

    Description / Table of Contents: Resume On examine différents facteurs qui pourraient affecter l'activité des glandes hypopharyngiennes (HP) des ouvrières d'Abeille, tels que l'âge des ouvrières, les stades de développement du couvain et le moment d'introduction ou de retrait du couvain. L'âge des abeilles exerce une influence marquée sur l'activité des glandes HP; celle-ci est corrélée avec la croissance et la résorption des glandes décrites dans la littérature. Seules les larves sont aptes à activer les glandes HP, alors que les œufs et les nymphes ne le sont pas. Les glandes de l'abeille restent inactives pendant trois jours après le début du nourrissage des larves; elles conservent leur activité pendant trois jours environ après le retrait des larves. Ces données sont en accord avec l'hypothèse que c'est le comportement de nourrissage lui-même qui active les glandes; cependant, on ne peut exclure la possibilité que les larves produisent une phéromone stimulante.
    Notes: Summary The effects of worker age, brood stage and time of brood introduction or brood withdrawal on the hypopharyngeal (HP) gland activity of worker bees were examined. Worker age exerted a marked influence on gland activity. Only larvae affected HP gland activity, while eggs and pupae did not. Bees had inactive glands until their third day of larval feeding and they maintained high gland activity for approximately three days after larval removal. The data are congruent with the hypothesis that feeding behaviour itself causes gland activation, although the possibility that larvae produce a primer pheromone cannot be excluded.
