鼎突多刺蚁的营巢习性 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:3
1985—1986年在浙江永康县城东南10公里的山坡上观察鼎突多刺蚁(Polyrhachis vicina Roger)的营巢习性;见到蚁巢大多分布于山脚附近、温暖而阳光充足的南坡,一般生活于地面,以刺芒野古草(Arundinella setosaTrin.)为主的禾本科草丛中.蚁巢由工蚁使幼虫吐丝把植物残体、昆虫尸体、泥沙和碎石等物缀织而成.地下部分的深度常受气温的影响:5—10月,气温较高,巢深2—4cm、11—4月,气候寒冷,深度可达10—20cm.每个蚁巢内的所有个体为一相对独立的群体,相邻蚁巢的群体间常相互联系、交换幼期个体和食物等.群体常因季节的变化而有迁移现象:秋季至春季,蚁巢大多位于阳光充足的草地上,夏天,由于气候炎热,蚁巢自草地移向遮荫度较大的树林.8—9月,部分上树筑巢.1—8月,蚁巢数不变,8月以后,蚁巢数开始增加,到10月达到最大,以后又下降,到12月降至通常水平.由此可见,9—10月,蚂蚁分巢,11—12月,部分蚁巢又合并.平均每巢工蚁数夏季最多,其次是春季和冬季,秋季由于分巢而最少. 相似文献

为了明确药剂灌巢剂量对红火蚁蚁巢迁移的影响。本研究利用不同剂量的锐劲特药液对红火蚁进行灌巢处理,在野外条件下观察了药剂灌巢后红火蚁蚁巢的迁移情况。结果表明:(1)当药液量与蚁巢体积的比例低于1.6时,会出现蚁巢迁移,药液量较大时,灌巢防治红火蚁可取得较好的防效;(2)随着灌巢药液量的增加,新蚁巢出现的个数明显减少,出现比例明显降低,新蚁巢的体积明显减小;(3)随着灌巢药液量的增加,新蚁巢出现的时间会延迟,处理药液量为2.5 L时,新蚁巢一般出现在1-3 d内,而药液量增加后,新蚁巢一般在3-5 d出现;(4)药剂灌巢防治后,红火蚁会在距处理蚁巢1-7 m范围内建立新蚁巢,不同药液量处理之间没有明显差异,新蚁巢出现的位置没有明显的方位取向。为避免灌巢不彻底导致蚁巢迁移,应保证灌巢用药量充足,推荐药液量为蚁巢体积的2倍以上。 相似文献

蚂蚁筑巢对不同恢复阶段热带森林土壤易氧化有机碳时空动态的影响 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
为探明热带森林恢复过程中蚂蚁筑巢对土壤易氧化有机碳(readily oxidizable carbon, ROC)时空动态的影响及机制, 本研究以西双版纳白背桐(Mallotus paniculatus)群落、野芭蕉(Musa acuminata)群落和崖豆藤(Mellettia leptobotrya)群落3种恢复阶段热带森林为研究对象, 设置“蚂蚁筑巢地”与“非巢地”2种处理进行野外控制实验, 对比分析蚁巢和非蚁巢土壤ROC含量的时空变化特征, 并揭示这些变化与土壤微生物生物量碳及理化性质之间的相互关系。结果表明: (1)蚂蚁筑巢显著影响热带森林土壤ROC含量(P < 0.05), 蚁巢土壤ROC含量较非蚁巢提高了14.2%。不同恢复阶段蚁巢与非蚁巢土壤ROC含量大小顺序为: 野芭蕉群落 > 崖豆藤群落 > 白背桐群落。(2)不同恢复阶段热带森林蚁巢与非蚁巢土壤ROC含量均呈单峰型的时间变化趋势(P < 0.05), 最大值出现在6月, 且各月份蚁巢土壤ROC含量均高于非蚁巢。(3)不同恢复阶段热带森林蚁巢和非蚁巢土壤ROC含量均随土层深度增加呈显著递减的垂直变化趋势(P < 0.05), 且蚁巢土壤ROC含量均大于非蚁巢(P < 0.05)。(4)蚂蚁筑巢引起的土壤理化性质变化对土壤ROC含量产生了一定的影响。土壤ROC含量与土壤pH和容重呈显著负相关(P < 0.05), 与土壤有机碳、微生物生物量碳、全氮、铵态氮及硝态氮呈显著正相关(P < 0.05)。土壤微生物生物量碳与总有机碳是蚁巢土壤ROC时空变化的主要贡献者, 而铵态氮、全氮和总有机碳是非蚁巢ROC时空变化的主控因子。因此, 蚂蚁筑巢改变热带森林土壤微生物量(如微生物生物量碳)及土壤理化性质(如总有机碳、铵态氮与全氮等), 进而显著影响土壤ROC的时空动态。 相似文献

在云南西双版纳和思茅地区有12种蚂蚁帮助舞草(Codariocalyx motorius)种子扩散。科学有效地监测蚂蚁种群的数量变化,对分析蚂蚁种群动态与舞草种群扩散的相互关系有重要的意义。作者采用陷阱诱捕法,用糖、鱼、肉、舞草种子做诱饵,并与不含诱饵的水(对照)及含3%甲醛的水溶液进行诱集蚂蚁的效果比较。结果显示搬运舞草种子的蚂蚁对不同诱饵的趋性及反应强度有明显差异。用糖、鱼、肉做诱饵与其它3种诱集方法相比,所诱集到的样地搬运和不搬运舞草种子的蚂蚁种类和数量要多。邻巨首蚁Pheidologeton affinisJerdon对糖和鱼有极强趋性,并影响诱集其他搬运舞草种子的。除邻巨首蚁外,通用的含3%甲醛溶液的诱集方法不影响诱集其他搬运舞草种子的蚂蚁,同时还能防止蚂蚁腐烂。搬运舞草种子的主要蚂蚁——伊大头蚁Pheidole yeensisForel对糖、鱼和肉均有趋性,对舞草种子也有一定的趋性。搬运舞草种子的蚂蚁在雨天的随机觅食活动很少,只有在食物的引诱下才出巢采食。试验结果表明,选择糖、鱼做诱饵不能完全反映搬运舞草种子的蚂蚁数量,而通用的含3%甲醛的水溶液是一种较好的监测方法,但诱集试验应避开雨天进行。 相似文献

Ants are among the most important elements in many ecosystems and known as famous ecosystem engineers. By changing physical and chemical properties of soil, ants may provide suitable habitats for other species. Based on previous observations, we hypothesized that Persian goitered gazelles (Gazella subgutturosa subgutturosa) exhibit a preference for utilizing sites close to seed harvester ant (Messor spp.) nests. We tested our hypothesis by (1) mapping the occurrence of harvester ant nests and aggregated gazelle pellet groups along 31 strip transects, (2) monitoring pellet group accumulation bimonthly at 56 pairs of permanent plots established on ant nests and at adjacent control sites for a complete year, and (3) comparing vegetation and soil parameters between ant nest sites used by gazelles and paired control plots without ant nests. Although the area of Messor spp. nest sites covered only about 0.29% of the sampled transects, 84% of the gazelle pellet group aggregation sites were positioned upon ant nests, suggesting that gazelles actively selected Messor spp. nest sites. Pair-wise comparisons between ant nest plots and paired control plots also confirmed higher use of ant nest sites by gazelles compared to sites without ant nests in all time periods. Percent soil organic matter, percent cover of gravel, and annual herb vegetation significantly differed between ant nest and paired control plots in all the vegetation communities. We suggest that the alterations brought about by harvester ants on soil and vegetation make these sites attractive to gazelles. Gazelle territoriality behaviour and use of ant nests as bedding sites may be the reasons for selection of ant nest sites by gazelles. 相似文献

Many ant species construct subterranean nests. The presence of their nests may explain soil respiration “hot spots”, an important factor in the high CO2 efflux from tropical forests. However, no studies have directly measured CO2 efflux from ant nests. We established 61 experimental plots containing 13 subterranean ant species to evaluate the CO2 efflux from subterranean ant nests in a tropical seasonal forest, Thailand. We examined differences in nest CO2 efflux among ant species. We determined the effects of environmental factors on nest CO2 efflux and calculated an index of nest structure. The mean CO2 efflux from nests was significantly higher than those from the surrounding soil in the wet and dry seasons. The CO2 efflux was species‐specific, showing significant differences among the 13 ant species. The soil moisture content significantly affected nest CO2 efflux, but there was no clear relationship between nest CO2 efflux and nest soil temperature. The diameter of the nest entrance hole affected CO2 efflux. However, there was no significant difference in CO2 efflux rates between single‐hole and multiple‐hole nests. Our results suggest that in a tropical forest ecosystem the increase in CO2 efflux from subterranean ant nests is caused by species‐specific activity of ants, the nest soil environment, and nest structure. 相似文献

Abstract In this study, it was investigated whether ants nesting under artificial rocks in a mesic south-eastern Australian grassland showed preference for nest sites with different temperature regimes. The study also allowed evaluation of competition between species for nest sites and observations of seasonality in brood and alate production in the nests of four common ant groups. On every sampling occasion more than 90% of nests were either Iridomyrmex spp., Rhytidoponera 'metallica' , Paratrechina sp. or Pheidole spp. Soil underneath thinner artificial rocks had higher average temperatures and warmed up earlier in the day and Iridomyrmex spp. and R. 'metallica' showed preference for establishing nests under these. While all ant nests had summer peaks in brood production, Iridomyrmex spp. and R. 'metallica' had brood observed throughout the year. Winged reproductives were commonly encountered in Iridomyrmex spp., R. 'metallica' and Paratrechina sp. nests, but only occasionally Pheidole spp. nests. Alates were present in the nests from February but released by all taxa after spring rains and were scarcely recorded in November, December and January when brood production was observed in most nests. Nest sites that offer protection from predators are an obvious advantage, but improved reproductive success can be gained in cool regions such as the mesic grasslands of the Australian Capital Territory by choosing nest sites with an optimal thermal regime. 相似文献

Previous studies of the role of nest predation in conspecificnest
parasitism have not taken into account the possibilitythat predation risk may
not be randomly distributed among nestsites and that breeding individuals may
use different cues toassess the risk and adjust their reproductive tactic
betweenyears accordingly. Especially in cavity-nesting species, therole of
nest predation in conspecific nest parasitism has beendownplayed, while the
role of nest site limitation has beenhighlighted. Using both observational
and experimental data,I show that in the common goldeneye (Bucephala
clangula), acavity-nesting species in which conspecific nest parasitism
iscommon, predation risk varies considerably between nest sitesand does not
follow a random expectation. The inequality inpredation risk between nest
sites also showed up in the occurrenceof parasitized nests in an experimental
setup. Nests parasitizedin year t were more frequent in those nest
sites that were notdepredated during the previous nesting attempt in year
t - nthan in nest sites that were depredated and in control
nestsites that had not been used for nesting before. A nest siteaddition
experiment revealed that conspecific nest parasitismwas not associated with
nest site limitation. My findings givesupport for the hypothesis that nest
predation is an importantecological factor explaining conspecific nest
parasitism ingoldeneyes. 相似文献

Proportions of nests parasitized by brown-headed cowbirds (Molothrus
ater) vary greatly among host species, but factors underlyingthis variation remain poorly understood. Cowbirds are believedto find nests by watching host behavior. We tested the hypothesisthat the activity of hosts during nest building correlateswith the probability of parasitism among and within four sympatrichosts: dusky flycatchers (Empidonax oberholseri), warblingvireos (Vireo gilvus), yellow warblers (Dendroica petechia),and American redstarts (Setophaga ruticilla). Daily probabilityof parasitism varied substantially among these species, from3% for dusky flycatchers to more than four times that for warblingvireos. The four species did not differ in the proportion ofcowbirds fledged from their nests. Differences in nest placementdid not explain differences in probability of parasitism amongor within species. Parasitism frequencies increased among speciesthat made longer nest-building visits, had a greater propensityto perch during nest approach, spent more time near their nests,and had males that vocalized more often near nests. Within species,
females that visited their nests less often, spent more timeon the nest per visit, and males that sang more and were activein a smaller area around their nests were more likely to beparasitized by cowbirds. These data support the hypothesisthat cowbirds use the activity of hosts during nest buildingto locate nests. 相似文献

The relationship between emigrations and anti-predator behaviour in the ant Pheidole desertorum was investigated in the field. Frequent emigrations in P. desertorum result in the colony having multiple nests, of which only one is occupied at a time. A field procedure demonstrated that the ants quickly find and enter the unoccupied nests after a nest evacuation caused by the army ant Neivamyrmex nigrescens. When colonies were denied access to their unoccupied nests after an evacuation, survival of the brood and alates was significantly lower than in colonies allowed access to all their nests. These results suggest that emigrations in P. desertorum are part of a defence strategy against army ants. 相似文献
