I wrote a review on the functions of 🐜 queen pheromones shown explicitly with behavioral experiments, with a strong focus on the natural histories. >> https://t.co/0QLg3aOWmF Here is a summary figure-

Estamos trabalhando no diagnóstico das espécies de formigas invasoras no Brasil. Caso possa nos enviar amostras de formigas exóticas (ver foto), por favor entre em contato!

Está indo pro Mirmeco esse ano? Ótimo, estaremos lá! Ficaremos gratos se puderem nos levar espécimes!

In this paper https://t.co/CnydZm9x2z we suggest that variation in Pheidole cuticular melanization is strongly correlated with climate variables for majors, but not so for minors.

The Technomyrmex ant genus was recorded for the first time in Brazil, in urban areas of Oiapoque, state of Amapá, Amazonia!

The authors also provide an updated key to the workers of the Dolichoderinae genera recorded in Brazil.

Happy to share our recent contribution to the evolution and classification of ectaheteromorph ants! Say goodbye to the Heteroponerinae and welcome the new genus Boltonia, in honor of the great Barry Bolton! @GabiCamacho @marciopie @bramic21 @LonginoJack @TedShultz @entsocamerica

[Rodrigo Feitosa @rsmfeitosa]

I'm thrilled and honored to announce that I'm the new editor for Formicidae of @Zootaxa. I really appreciate the continued support of all my myrmecologist friends. Special thanks to @LonginoJack and Zhi-Qiang Zhang for the trust.

The gift of New Year's Eve came in the hands of @MDiasAmanda and J. Lattke. An exceptional work on Dinoponera taxonomy, as the main result of her MSc. project was recently published: https://t.co/4FKPXlsGtl
May the new year bring all of us health and many ants to look up to!🥳🎇
