| contents | <p><b><i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01</b></p><p>(ANTWEB: CASENT0173268). (Map 26)</p><p><i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01 is a rather rare ant that is similar to <i>Pheidole nana</i> Emery 1894, known from types from Matto Grosso– Brazil (HERRERA <i>et al.,</i> 2014). <i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01 is found mainly in dry and humid zones on nine islands and its origin is uncertain. Specimens have been collected under trees of <i>Sapindus saponaria</i> L., in the fern zone (<i>Pteridium</i> sp.), in forests of <i>H. mancinella</i>, <i>M. robinsoniana</i> and <i>C. pubescens</i>. On Cerro Azul volcano (Isabela Island), we found some specimens in xerophylic open vegetation composed of very short grasses and herbs dominated by <i>Muhlenbergia microsperma</i> (DC.) Trin., <i>S. setosa</i>, <i>Borreria laevis</i> (Lam.) Griseb., ferns, <i>Darwiniothamnus</i> species, <i>Opuntia saxicola</i> Howell, and trees of <i>S. cordata</i>. <i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01 has been collected mainly from natural areas. The only information related to the nesting habits of <i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01 comes from an observation of some queens and dimorphic workers nesting at the base of small shrubs on Darwin volcano on Isabela Island. Attraction to toxic baits (Hydramethylnon) suggests that <i>Pheidole</i> sp. hh01 might possibly be affected by control programs against other ant species (CAUSTON <i>et al.,</i> 2005).</p> |
